Hi there,
In the process of running network cabling through the house, I lifted a floor board upstairs to discover an 'interesting' bit of wiring on the lighting circuit. Basically on one light fitting, all the T+E lighting cables (including switch cable) are terminated in a terminal strip (choc block), with approx 1 metre length of two core flex going through the next joist and to the light fitting.
Would it be acceptable to replace the terminal strip with a junction box attached to the joist, and replace the flex with a length of T+E, or do I need to do more (obviously I'd prefer to avoid replacing all the existing T+E cable with cable of the correct length to reach the light fitting).
Thanks in advance,
Chris.
