Our ensuite currently has a cheap shaver light which is on a direct spur from the lighting circuit.
I would like to replace this with some low voltage downlights built into a cabinet I am going to make, something along these lines:
The lights would probably be switched via a ceiling pull switch.
I have two questions,
1. The lights would be outside zone 3, but all the lights I can find are either 'not suitable for use in a bathroom', or else are only for mounting in non-flammable material. Any pointers?
2. If I run the lights off the same spur as is currently used, am I correct in thinking a FSU must be placed on the spur to comply with current regs? If so, can the FSU be located in the attic? I understand it cannot be located in the bathroom.
By the way, I am aware that this is notifyable under Part P.
Any help much appreciated.
