Hi all, how easy is it to install halogen downlighters in an old lathe & plaster ceiling? The wiring is not a problem, I can sort that, just a few things that cross my mind when I think about them.
- once I cut a hole for them the wood lathes will be unsupported, what to do here?
- will the old ceiling be to thick for them to sit in, I think they fix using metal spring clip things.I fitted some eyeball lights in our last house but this had plaster board ceiling.
Any other points to watch out for?
Also what are the advantages or disadvantages in fitting mains powered as opposed to low voltage ones. These are to be fitted in the kitchen. Many thanks
