Hi I'm a fully qualified domestic installer, past my exams in April and currently seeking some more experience and also earn some money so I can afford tester equipment and membership fees

I have worked as a electricans mate on a total re-wire of an empty property and I have also installed lights and additional sockets on other jobs.

I have the following qualifications
Domestic installer inc part p
17th edition wiring regulations
Pat testing
Ecs card safe exam passed but pending card

​

Just thought I would browse over some previous posts made by the OP

Seems we're not actually trying to assist a DIY'er at all but unfortunately it would come to light that the OP is in fact working in the trade in one form or another so really there is absolutely no reason for there to be lack of information.

Jesus its quite simple all I'm askin is if I can have 2 lights of the one pendant ! Thanks for all ur whitty comments they have been emensley helpful!

You are most definitely 100% correct, it really is quite simple lol

I have 10 halogens mains connected

I want to operate them on 2 switches (6 lamps on one and 4 on another) I'm using celling roses for
Ease but my query is can u feed two lamps off one celling rose???

You will have to add a switch wire and split the bank of 10 to what your 6&4

I see your talking about your connections from the old ceiling rose that's being used instead of a junction box

I would have thought trying to use ceiling roses would make the job less easy.

I agree, use the right equipment for the job

I wouldn't use a ceiling rose at all when fitting downlights.....they are designed for pendants! I personally use the Ashlesy J501 downlight junction boxes - but you need one of these per fitting. Makes it easy to loop to next fitting and install a length of heat resistant flex to the fitting itself.

same here except i use line connectors and enclosures.

Dare I ask the OP if he managed to buy test equipment yet?

Or managed to get into a 'scheme' without it.Sorry could'nt resist it.

 

[telectrix]

i could lend him this.......

 

[trev]

Would he know how to use it though Tel? After all his question is basic so something with pointers etc may be a bit too far

well . i'v e just ( for want of something to relieve the boredom) been checking my 1976 AVO8 for accuracy. e,g, reads 12,3V d.c. on avo. calibrated digi reads 12.34V. similar on a.c. ranges. good enough for me.
