Hi Guys,
I want to wire up 6 spotlights (2 rows of 3) in the bedroom from one main lighting point which is already wired in and wanted to confirm a few things first as I have never wired up spotlights before only normal 1,2 way lighting.
I have not checked yet but I should be able to get access to the above ceiling from the attic.
1. Would it best to use a junction box to connect the main power source already installed then feed out to the other 6 spots? (or transformer to each light and daisy chain off)
2. Also am I ok with a 20a JB or would you recommend 30a? Should I use a 6 way JB?
3. I plan on also changing the normal light switch to a dimmer switch to control the 6 spots together, do I need to wire anythign back to the switch i.e. switch wires etc?
Many Thanks for your help.
