L V Outside Lights

[Newpark7]

Hi

I recently quoted for the fitting of 2 outside lights and have carried out first fix all cables run to position etc.

On going back to fit the lights (customer supplied) they are low voltage which means I now have to uplift carpets, floorboards etc to fit trannys etc.

My question is - can I use my existing newly installed T&E for the output LV supply side to the lights or do I need to re-run LV cable to the lights?

Thanks

Eh? Why do you have to fit trannys to LV?

EDIT: Sorry, hangover, I take it you mean ELV? Don't see any reason why you can't use the existing cable coming from the tranny, provided you can fit it in there!

Double edit: As long as you aren't going to compromise any seals on the lights by doing so, and the manufaturer instructions don't tell you not to.

Have the trannies not got H/R tails , if not heat resisting cable should be used

Thanks for replies so far.

No tails on the trannys and the lamps say the joint to them should be made with adhesive based heatshrink.
