Hi
I'm just wondering how to go about lengthening the cable to the bathroom light. The existing light cable has a spur coming from it that goes off to the fan. I want to lengthen it in order to drop the ceiling by about 300mm. Would this come under Part P and require notification even though it's going to be above the bathroom ceiling? Will it require a junction box with IP?

Thanks

Just replace the existing spur with a 300mm longer one, no need for a JB.

No and no.

Thanks
