exposed electrical truncking for L-box
the L-box wiring has been done... but there are now exposed electrical truncking!!!
one of the reasons the electrician gave for tapping from the main circuit box instead of using the existing lighting point is that there are too many downlights (I have 12 E27 20W downlights) and may cause power trip...
but i referred to the HDB electrical circuit diagram and noticed that the rated current for lighting points is 6A i.e. about 1300W... including the downlights plus the room lights, there will be 20 pieces of E27 20W lamps, and plus a ceiling fan (100W max), the max power consumed will only be about 500W, i.e. 2.2 A i.e. 36% of the rated current... should be ok rite?? as in, this amount of current won't cause power trip rite???
