Hi
I am installing small flood lights along a path. They will be daisy chained together and powered by an outdoor switch. I want to put another switch at the other end of the path that can turn them on/off also. Do I just need a cable connecting the second switch to the first? How many cores? Some diagrams say the return cable needs to have 4 wires. Also, do I terminate the daisy chain at the final light or do I connect the cable I yo the second switch? Any help appreciated
