I want to replace a pendant ceiling light with a new light fitting (a 3-light bow spotlight). The instructions that come with the new light, and all DIY books, tell me to expect either 1 or 3 cables. But I have taken off the ceiling rose to find 2 cables. Each of the 2 cables houses a red wire, a black wire and a copper wire.
The new light fitting comes with a 4-terminal block. The terminals are marked L(ive), E(arth) and N(eutral), with the fourth terminal unmarked.
So I'm seeking advice on correct procedure for connecting the 3 pairs of incoming wires to this 4-terminal block. In the meantime I've reinstalled the old fitting exactly as it was.
