[QUOTE="Riggy, post: 73387, member: 71"] Phil. I'd be lying if I claimed to be a younger spark, but I prefer to loop in at the switches. I think this is because I spent many years working in a factory where most light fittings were over machines. Looping in at fittings made fault finding challenging. The other thing is that with insulated and/or stud walls deep switch boxes are not a problem, but looping in so many modern light fittings is near impossible, and with chipboard floors joint boxes are an even worse idea than they were with T&G [/QUOTE]
