DIY question (UK) I have one electrical wire coming out of the wall outside the building and?

I want to install two separate outdoor lights. How do I do that from one wire? How can I make one wire into two wires and what would I need? Thanks.

Answer:

you have to extend from light 1 to new light, becouse is lighting you normally put the wires color to color if no color in wires you will need a tester to check for polarity, normally the hot conductor is control bay the switch. installation will depend from place to place. be safe electricity will kill you.
this can be done with a external water proof junction box, be sure you know what you are doing, you could put your self and the building at risk.
You need 2 wires a positiv and ground. You need a complete circut. Make sure the power is off and strip the line to see if you have 2 wires inside. if not then seek good help otherwise you might just burn your flat down
