I have a question about running new AC electrical lines to power new outdoor lighting. The lights illuminate important areas for camera captures, hence, the tie-in to this forum.
What I need to do is pretty simply, but as I've not done it before, I'd like to be sure of my plans. I currently have an outdoor light fixture that I will extend to the new lighting. There will be two (2) new fixtures on motion lights. I imagine it like a capital T with the source (existing fixture) being at the base of the T, then the wire runs from the bottom to the juncture at the top of the T. This is where I get a bit confused. From the juncture at the top of the T, do I just run a single wire out to the left part of the T and a separate wire to the right part of the T? OR .... do I run a complete circuit with a wire running from the bottom of the T all the way out to the Left part of the T and then another wire running from the Left part of the T to the Right part of the T?
I hope I explained it well.
Suggestions are welcomed.
