Hi all,
I'm redo-ing some of the lighting circuit in
my
house (due to old wiring etc.) and was wondering what type of cable I
should
run to the light switches. From what I understand, usually in the UK light
switches are wired with 1.5mm sq. twin and earth - the "twin" being for the
live and the switched live. I was contemplating running some form of
"treble"
and earth and hook up the third wire to neutral.
The reason for this is that I have read in
several places in the past that in order to do blah, blah, blah will
require a
neutral connection - e.g. If I wanted to use an X10 AW10 as a light
switch to switch on an energy saving light. I also believe that putting in
a
neutral would allow me to use those new micro module
thingime-bobbers...?
Can any one give me any more examples of
situations where a neutral would be necessary.
Would anyone advise against this...? If so,
why...?
Many thanks,
Andy.
