    Double pendant light advice needed

    Postby Ruth23 » Thu Dec 08, 2011 7:09 pm

    Hi,
    I want to have two pendant lights emerging from one rose. I'm sure I've heard that this is possible, but I can't see how tow flexes are going to to go through the hole in the ceiling rose, and I'm not sure if it's OK to double up the wiring inside. I I have looked for double ceiling roses, but as far as I can see, they don't exist.

    Any advice would be very much appreciated.

    Visit your nearest electrical wholesaler and they should inform you whats on the market.

    In the past I have used lighting track to get multi-outputs as normally one also needs some separation if supported by cord.

    Thank you both very much. I'm going to keep trying, as I'm sure I've seen this in magazines etc. The cords would be hanging from separate hooks elsewhere on the ceiling, so keeping the cords separate wouldn't be a problem...

    Click make a plug in ceiling rose and hook. Seem to remember brass colour. Using these one could hard wire to original rose maybe remove it altogether and use a junction box. With the Click units you can wire it all up on the floor then just plug in. (and slide sidewards) Makes it far easier with heavy lamps.
