Hi there
To start with, I am not an electrician but I hope that you are willing to help?, I am currently fitting out a shell of a room, i.e battens, insulation, sockets, plasterboard etc. Before I insulate I need to lay the electric cables for both sockets and lights, the room has not had electricity in it previously (just laying the cables, I will be getting an electrician in to do the actual connecting), the sockets are simple and I understand but I am unsure as to which method I should cable the lights, as I understand it can be either Loop at Light or Loop at Switch, are there any benefits to either or do the regs now require a particular method?
Hope you can help?
