Can someone advise me how to wire a new switch to an existing light?

Question

I currently have a single pole switch that powers two fixtures. Like to have each fixture on a separate switches?

Answer 1

If the new switch will be in proximity to the old switch, you can simply share the hot lead, isolate the second fixture and wire it to the new switch.

There are a few different ways to do this, a lot of it depends on where your fixtures are located in relation to the switch and the power feed. Good luck and be safe!
