well in canada where i live by code you can hook up 3 seperate light sockets to use with your y apators, your allowed a total of 12 amp on a 15 amp curcit the other 3 amps is your safety margin for the circut the cfls the 6 cfls shouldn't come cloe to that many amps, as for the wiring make sure you use 14/2 with ground for the extion cable from the lights to the wall you can feed one light with main power from the wall to the first light octagon box then jump to the other two for power make sure you hook ground up on 3 prong plug for wall and in the octagon box's as for the wire hook up white is commin and always hooks up too siler on the light sockets and wall plug black is your hot and hooks up to brass on the light sockets and wall plug...
