I am in the process of remodeling my bathroom, and am working on the electrical. All of the walls are open, so access is good if I need to run new cable. There are two circuits in the bathroom, one 15A that powers the fan/light combo, the other is a 20A that powers the outlets and ceiling light. I have a single gang, double switch on the 20A circuit. The upper switch controls the light on the ceiling. The lower switch used to control the light on the light/fan combo, but I’ve rewired the light/fan unit so the light and fan are on the same circuit (didn’t use to be). Now I’d like to use the lower switch to control two wall sconces. There are 2 wires coming in to the switch, red is line, black is load to the ceiling light. There is also 12/2 romex, black is load for the bottom switch; the white is not connected and is capped off. Can I use the bottom switch for my sconces? Will I need to run additional cables, or connect to the existing light or outlets for the neutral?
