I have an elderly relative that is having a kitchen refit done at the moment. As part of the job she wants to be able to turn her kitchen lights off ( and on ) from outside her bedroom door and also at the side of her main entrance door. She lives in a bungalow by the way. The kitchen guys have told her it is now against regulations to have two switches in the same room controlling the same lights!!! Is this correct, as I think the guy(s) is talking b******s so he doesn't have to rewire it in either 3 core and earth or do it via a junction box in the loft, which is very well boarded out and it would be quite a job to lift them to get to the wiring. If it is correct my living room, kitchen, dining room and hallway are all against regulation now!
Any comments greatly appreciated as the guys are back on site on Monday.
Cheers
John
