Re: Simple Multi Room Audio help



You can take power from the permanent live from a ceiling rose (i.e.
the light bulb itself would be on the switched live side).

IMHO the ceiling void is not part of the bathroom, and you don't
*need* to take the power from the bathroom ceiling rose anyway. Part P
lets you modify existing circuits - some of the major exclusions are
adding completely new circuits from the consumer unit and wiring
*inside* kitchens & bathrooms. Extending an existing lighting circuit
to include this unit would fall outside Part P IMHO, but I'm just a
home owner...

It looks a pretty good product :-)

HTH,

Tim.
