What is the maximum number of spurs which can be taken from the 'loop' connection in a ceiling rose?

Currently there are 3 live wires in the loop connector - can I add one more for another feed?

It's not in a traditional rose, the loops are In a connector block. Could I add another to the opposite terminal?

Thanks

There is no maximum.

Yes

Yes.
 
As EFLI has said, you can do as you propose, limited only by how may conductors will fit into the terminals (of the connector blocks, in your case). However, do all the additional lights need to be arranged as spurs from this one - can't you loop at least some of them 'from one to next', in the conventional way?

Kind Regards, John

Have you misread?
Maybe. The second question in the OP asked whether it was OK to 'add one more'. However, the first question asked about the "maximum number of spurs" that could be taken from a rose. maybe I was over-interpreting that first question.

Kind Regards, John
