Can you overload a lighting circuit

MrJack96
My question is if you’ve got a lighting circuit and you ad addition loads to the circuit will this always trip the breaker if you add too much load on a circuit? 


thanks for your help guys

    Usually for the power brick for the TV amp in the loft.

    Also there is no formal definition of the distinction between  lighting circuit with a few extra loads, and a power circuit with a few extra lights-  does a supply to a garage or small conservatory with a couple of double sockets and a light switch count if it is a fused spur?
