    Outside spotlight Instalation

    . I’m going to position the spot lights in the positions where the 4 bits of tape are, the one that’s going to be above name plate has a baton of wood where I need to put the spot light. Anyone ever ran across that problem or any ideas what to do?

    Thanks mate, is an override switch just the same as a 1gang 1way switch? And are all the blacks in the term block on my pic the neutrals? And would any of those cable runs be 1.5mm or all just 1.0mm 👍🏻 Thanks for the reply
