Three lights one switch

[Jonnycdee]

I have just bought these lights from B & Q
Volos Sphere White Single Wall Light | Departments | DIY at B&Q - http://www.diy.com/departments/volos-sphere-white-single-wall-light/258109_BQ.prd

I'm wanting to wire them (3) to one switch.

What's the safest and easiest way to do this please?

Many thanks in advance!!!!

Safest way would be to hire an electrician, who has all the relevant test equipment and knowledge to hand.

Jonny, if you are not sure of how to do this simple job, then I would suggest your best option would be to employ the services of an Electrician, you could meddle with this unill eventually you may get it right, but it could prove expensive and more importantly dangerous, call an Electrician, get it done right first time, save time and money in the end.

TBH it's tricky to say much without looking at your home. Rather too many variables.....

Hire someone in, I've seen a few people make a big mess of the simplest lighting circuits trying to avoid paying an electrician.

PS I would take the lights back & get a refund. Those ceramic fittings will eventually crack from the heat of the lamp, unless you can cram in an LED lamp.

Seems a popular descriptive format that some members have started to use; something the rag tops do on their front page, when there's nothing else they can think of reporting about

I am with Midwest those fittings are dire and difficult to connect in a safe manner.

Always made off with H/R flex into back box behind fitting with low energy/LED lamp.

Sounds like a porno I once watched, 3 lights 1 switch

I agree with your method but I was getting at the DIYer trying to connect the multitude of fittings which can be obtained from these places in a safe manner.

It's the cable zoning that's never correct.
