    Joint box in loft or back to switch

    Anyone got any pictures of jobs they’ve done using a joint box in loft instead of taking all cables back to your switch position? Eg Spots, Fan, Mirror as our next job has all wall paper on walls so may be a better option just curious to see what it’s like.

    20 amp joint box, instead of 5 amp

    Is it OK to put a 20 amp joint box on instead of a 5 amp on a lighting circuit, baring in mind it will be about to be tested? I know its a bit of a stupid question. Is just because I have no 5 amp lying around. Cheers.
