The switch which controls the main kitchen light is a 2 gang it also switches on the lights under the kitchen cabinets. I want to add a second switch in place of the 1 gang switch which only controls the outside light which is located in the kitchen. I have purchased a 2 gang switch one switch to operate the outside light and one to operate the kitchen light. I basically want to be able to switch the kitchen lights on from 2 locations. I assume that the common port on the original 2 gang would need to have 2 ports connected as before.
The problem is I cant figure out how to wire it up, the switch that controls the ceiling lights has a brown wire to L2 and C2 there is an additional brown wire linking the 2 com ports.
The cable that is available for has the following wires grey,black,brown and earth.
The location in the kitchen where I am going to put the 2 gang switch in has a 1 gang switch which controls an outside light, therefore I am going to replace this with a 2 gang. The cable that is available to connect to the kitchen ceiling light has the following wires grey,black,brown and earth.
I have tried to figure out what wire should go where but am struggling.
Can any one help please.
Thanks in advance.
