Based on your question, I assume that you know next to nothing about electrical wiring. I suggest that you hire the services of a licensed electrician. Improper wiring is one of the leading causes of house fires. There are lots of electricians that do these small jobs, and they are not very expensive. The alternative can be devastating.
Good luck with your electrical project.

the two wires are in all likelihood the legs of the hoop important. Breaking the hoop important isn't this type of easy job because it could seem till you're conscious of the guidelines and can comply, or are prepared to break the regulation. The maximum secure element you're able to do as an beginner is to run spurs from the present sockets. no count if it quite is a single outlet then you quite can greater healthful a single socket on a spur. If it quite is a twin outlet then you quite can run a double socket on a spur. The spur wires must be 2.5mm twin+earth. you will choose some green/yellow sleeve to sheath the bare earth conductors. the recent wiring would be brown, blue and green/yellow. The old will in all likelihood be pink, black, bare or green/'yellow. those might desire to be linked with brown-pink, blue-brown, and earths-earths. The rules require that an eternal (no longer a freezer decal or submit-it) label be linked to the field with the joint to coach that the cord shade codes substitute on the factor. The rules are very strict approximately what you are able to and can't do with family individuals electric circuits. in case you pass against section P of the construction rules and additionally against the Wiring rules then you quite are in possibility of prosecution, and your spouse and childrens insurance could be invalid in case you have a fire.

Don't do it. You can easily get 240V instead of 120V if you don't know what you are doing. You would also be bypassing the circuit breakers causing a fire hazard.
