Adding a flood light

paco6945
13 years ago

I've got an outdoor floodlight (150W) that is connected to a single 20 amp breaker. I want to add 2 more flood lights, with a separate switch to control the new lights.

Is there any problem with doing this? And would I just run the wire for the new floods out of the existing junction box?
