[QUOTE="Phoenix, post: 555197, member: 8133"] You need to make sure the lights are on an RCD before you start adding sockets to it, provided they are, you'd be well advised to mount the socket out the way and make sure you label it somehting like "CAMERA PSU ONLY - SUPPLIED ON 5A CIRCUIT" You can get a permenent feed off the lives in the connector block and pick up the neutral and earth from those that go to the ftting, note that those connections are suitable only for two conductors each, so you are going to have to add some connector blocks or wagos and a short pig tail in the fitting, you should not jam more than one wire into each hole on the push fit connectors, and if someone has already done this with the earths, you could correct it [/QUOTE]
