Hi,
I have just put up an new 4 bulb spotlight in the kitchen. This I thought would be the tricky bit, however it went up ok and worked with the existing 2 buttoned light switch. One button for spotlight and one for side light by bread bin.
However, i then tried replacing the existing light switch with a decor one from do it all. Stupidly i didnt take note of where the various cables plugged in.
On looking at the new switch it has 2 gangs who's diagrams involve a neutral cable. But the neutral cable is safely tucked away inside its own protective cover inside the wall and wasnt used previously.
I find this very confusing and am scared of blowing all my electrics by connecting it back without a neutral.
Can anyone give me any advice on what to do or a web link which may help me please?
Cheers,
Clank
