Ok the answers to your questions. I cut the cable and inserted the junction box at the point where i had drilled through the cable. All connections seem fine now. The switch in the kitchen has a neon light on it and by the look of it the feed goes into this switch and then travels directly...

Okay heres the explanation that has caused all my problems. Thanks for all the speedy possibilities though. I have been fitting a new kitchen fitted and some idiot(myself) has drilled an hole for a baton support straight through the cable and taking out the neutral in the process, good job I...

We have an immersion heater switch in the kitchen that has neon light on it. Got up this morning and no hot water and realised the neon light on the switch was not illuminated even though the switch was on. I have checked the fuse box and nothing seems to have tripped. I have removed the...

Thankyou, Can I take this from the existing wires that go into switch for the room lights. A digram would really help if you could link me to one . Even better still you could tell me exactly where to put what wire. Oh ar lass said "ask him if he knows how to put some shelves up while...

Yes I see your point ............. Maybe it would have been easier to a put a plug on the end the damn wire. So to try and make sense of all this I have two bloody wires(not inc earth) from the outside light and I have 2gang switch which now has the wires for the room light in switch 2...

Would the neutral then become live. I no I should read up and learn more and with time I will. I am just short of time at the moment. This is the reason why I have posted the question, sorry for being presumptious but I thought forums like this were to help and maybe give an answer to ones...

Ok ok, Sorry. Still bodging it, not had time to leg it yet. So what's the solution RF? Thanks

Why would I need 3 way cable. I am just replacing a one way light switch (this controls the room light) with a two way to accomodate the outside light. One switch to control the room light the other to switch on the outside light. The single light has 2 red wires and one black (com - red ...

Ok thanks, A link to the diagram would be appreciated ! As`for it doesn't work like that I don't understand. If I connect the outside light wires to the current single light switch.. ie. Blue into the black and red into the brown it works so why not on a two way switch. Thanks

I have just installed an outside light and want to connect the wire from the light to a 2 way switch(replacing my current 1 way switch in the room) I have copied the wiring on the 1 way switch and wired this up to the the first switch on the 2 way. Now lies my problem where do the neutral and...
