Hi all
See picture! I have just put in this socket (which contains a built in timer) by replicating the wiring that was there before. However, some problems:
- The rocker switch works the wrong way; as this has timer functions built in, i can't simply rotate the switch!
- The wiring is not like any diagram I have seen; all the black wires are held together, and the all the ones going into the socket are red. What does this mean?
- The strange thing about this particular switch is that it is the only one controlling the light, yet it is wired like a 2 way. It only controls one light. Agani, not like anything i read about....
So, I guess I firstly want to work out how I getthe rocker to work correctly. But some noddy explanation of what all the wires are likely to be would be much appreciated...
Thanks
Alex
