Hello everyone and happy New Year,

I have a question. I have already installed a suspended ceiling and found and connected all the spotlights. Now I would like to install an outlet or a double outlet directly next to one of the spotlights on the ceiling. Alternatively, I could remove one spotlight and replace it with an outlet. My question is: will the outlet always have power, or only when the ceiling light is turned on?

Thank you all very much.

We had considered installing AFDD+ circuit breakers, as standard installations generally do not offer enough protection against fires. DIY solutions carry a risk of electrical or smoldering fires.
