I want to replace a single wall-mounted outdoor light, operated by a light switch, with three separate wall-mounted lights, all run by the same switch.

I can find diagrams and descriptions for splitting the original line into two, but not for splitting it into three.

Advice would be great. Thanks!

I don't know what you mean by 'splitting' the line.

You woould just wire all 3 of the lights in parallel with the current one. Connect the black wires together and the white wires together, with the black & white wires going to the existing light.
