Hi,
I've got a couple of new lights and I understand the existing ceiling rose and how the nine wires from the three cables go in. I now have a light from Dunelm and it has a terminal box with two terminals for live, two for earth, and two for neutral.
I have been looking on the internet and other people have similar issues but nobody seems to have nine wires in the initial configuration.
I have seen this https://www.diynot.com/wiki/Electrics:Lighting-Rose which seems to solve the problem, the only question is what do I get to house the three live wires?
I think this is what I need but can anybody confirm?
- Wago 221 3 way terminal block, or can I buy a terminal strip and just screw all three wires into one terminal? Would I need the 6A terminal strip?
- A ChocBox connector box to house said block/strip
Thanks!
