Yes. There isn't really a concept of a "spur" as it's a radial circuit and there are no limits to the number or direction of branches. Fit a local isolator to the fan as otherwise you'll have to turn off the loft light to work on the fan in the dark Owain

I have a bathroom fan to fit in the loft for which I'll break into & spur off the radial lighting circuit.



Whilst doing that I thought I should install a simple loft light.



Can I do both these things on the same spur off the lighting radial circuit? In effect making a branch with two fixtures on it?



TIA


Yes.

Plus it's an electrical reg to fit an isolator for a fan:-)

Yup, you can split and branch anywhere you like...
