Defo sounds ok to you?  Any other advice on the easiest option on routing cables through out the house. Is looping them up and down from the loft the easiest? Just looking for the best way to save me cutting lots of holes in the plaster.    Thanks 

Thanks and I’m sorry, I am a bit of a novice but if pointed in the correct direction I like doing things myself and having a go.    So am I correct in saying that I would take my 1.5m t&e from my existing switch live and put it into dp isolation switch L to L N to N whilst bonding the...

Would wiring that isolation switch just be the same as wiring 1gang 1way switch?    Thanks
