Default How do I hook-up ...
Hi guys,

Just digging to find info so I know what Im talking about when I get my lights fitted.

I have 8 Halogen ceiling lights, these will be chained from one to another (radial I think its called).
1. Can they all come from a junction box thats in the loft already?
2. They get hot also, so do they need any form of protective box on the back of them?
3. And do the have to be linked to a particualr junction box eg. 6 amp etc

If this is the wrong way to doi, how would you go about it?

Thanks in advance
