@ntpntntp Thanks for posting circuit diagram, I had a play around with the circuit on a breadboard so I could pyhsically see what i would need to be doing and it works well so time I am onto installation now. @TC, I quite understand your reasons for wanting individual switches. As you say commercial buildings may be lit during the day but not houses, and not all houses will be lit at night - people might be out, maybe off down the pub. This was my point, and I have wired the lights in the buildings in series. Thanks also @BM, @BB, @PH, @AL, for conributing to this post
