Re: Need advice re junction boxes for kitchen lighting 9Apr 21, 2014 7:42 pm We went the junction box route and I am sure it included the switch - which also has the pantry light on it (which will be installed by the builder). We are having our lights installed after handover but before moving in - doing pretty much the same as you but I haven't decided how many downlights yet. We are getting the downlights that never change the globes (they last for minimum 7 years, about $80 each then you get an electrician to change them when they do finally go). They are supposed to be very energy efficient and never get hot so no risk of fire in the roof.

These particular downlights plug into a power point - so the sparky will need to install power points coming out of the junction box? (that's what my previous sparky told me, but I am in a different area now and it is too far for him to come so I can't use him) Levelling compound Ardit is the best but buy a bag of sand and make sand dam to protect your wood floor 2 15444 Building Standards; Getting It Right! 1. optional, you can but normally just use the earth from the main switch board 2. should be enough but the distance determines voltage drop - sparky should work it… 1 29094 I have a really long hallway which is 1100mm W x 11500mm L I would appreciate if anyone can give suggestions to light it up with Linear LED lights that goes from wall to… 0 9110 |
