Guys

I've come accross A borrowed neutral in the upstairs/downstairs lighting circuits in a property where I'm fitting a nw dual rcd board.
It's the usual landing light job, feed from downstairs circuit, Neutral borrowed from upstairs circuit, I need to run a seperate neutral from the landing light rose to the loop in terminal in the downstairs hall light, the run starts in the attic then goes through a disused airing cupboard then under the floor, I'm going to run a single 1.5mm, even though it's technically hidden everywhere what do you all think is the best way to run or protect it, I was thinking mini trunking or oval conduit?
Cheers
 
is the earth also taken from the upstairs lighting circuit to the landing light. if it is i would run a neutral and earth from downstairs to landing light. and then both circuits will be completely separate.
 
or feed a live and earth from uptairs and dis the existing live
 
Landing light ceiling rose contained single double insulated neutral and a two core red for switched line and earth which comes from the switch which is fed from downstairs, so I presuming it's earth is on downstairs already, I suppose I could make sure by using the brown cut out method and running a neutral and earth to downstairs
