I have a lamp with an inline switch on the cord.
Can I wire an additional lamp into the same switch?
(without triggering a fiery death to either lamps, my home or its occupants)
(It is these, multiple small LED bulbs each)
Edit: what I want is 1 plug socket, one cord, switch, then the 2 lamps, on different levels of a book case.
Probably. Most modern lamps draw very little current so the switch is probably over-rated but you should really add up what you will be drawing and check it against the switch rating which is hopefully moulded/stamped/written on it somewhere.
