    Lighting issue: At the end of my tether

    In answer to the question, there were just two wires going into the rose (plus ceiling light), the two reds were on the Loop In centre connector then the black wires on the L & N. I did take a note and when I reconstruct the ceiling rose wiring (but the light does not come on!), I get 240...
