    Wiring for multiple lights and switches
    I am adding a new circuit of lights, and I want to know if this way will be OK.
    -The supply from the panel enters the first fixture. The black supply is connected to 1)the white wire of the switch leg 2) the black of the leg that runs power to the next set of lights. The supply white is connected to 1) the white of the leg that runs to the next set of lights 2) the white into the fixture 3) the white of the leg that runs to the second fixture of this pair. All grouns are connected together. The black of the switch leg comes back and connects to 1)the black into the fixture 2) the blackwire of the leg that runs to the next fixture of this pair. The second and third pair of lights are wired the same. Is this correct. Are all the nuetrals OK. It all seems correct to me, but it never hurts to ask.
