RE: LD11 Loadings



Hmmm, possibly not a good idea to have an exposed piece of metal at
240V...?
Or have I misunderstood...?

Personally, I would think about doing it like so:
Wire up light 1 to the LD11 as normal.
Then take the switched live from light 1 and wire it to the live of light
2.
Then put a link between the live and switched live of light 2.
(Connect the live of light 2 to the live of light 3 - and wire the link
between the live and switched live etc. etc...)

Does this sound as if it will work...???

Andy.

If the LD11 is going in a Local consumer unit - some have multiple Copper
busses - so you could use these for Distribution of the switched 240V to
multiple Transformers ?

I have 5x35Watt downlighters in the bedroom and used a single LD11 to a
single Transformer. Then had a single 2.5mm T&E to a 30Amp junction box
for
the 12V and then split the 12V out from there to the downlighters via
individual 1mm T&E. Standard round junction box coped happily with 6
cables
in each screw terminal.

I want to put in 10 20watt 12v downlighters in my Games Room. So my
question is, can I hang this lot ok from a single LD11 and therefore one
momentary switch ?

The other challenge here is how to get from 10 T&E cables down to a
single
one to connect to the LD11 - anyone got any bright ideas ? (other than a
cascading joining system !)
