I was wondering if anyone can help with a wiring problem.
I'm trying to install 7 no. IP65 vapour proof, 58w single light fittings with a 2 gang grid switch, one grid switch controlling the lights and the other grid which is an Emg key switch controlling 2 no. 8w Non-maintained Emg lights. What I want to do is be able to bring the 2 no. Emg lights in test mode, without switching off power to the 7 no. non-emg lights, i.e. keep these on, this is for testing purposes only, can anyone help, a bit baffled!!
Cheers

Loop the feed to the switch across the 2 switches then from one switch output to emg lights and from the other switch output to flouresants

"It works" and "it's safe" are not necessarily the same thing. With DIY work, they are often far from the same thing.

It could be a slave switch where you would have a L in and a common wire out to a master switch.
