Want to fit a dimmer switch but new build strange wiring!!

Take a look at the end of the chockblock is that a neutral unstripped from the same T/E as the loose brown ? if so I would say the T/E is not connected to anything.

Crafty up the road from me are some new builds & the wall lights are charged out as extras (£45 each), if you dont want wall lights the cables are terminated in jb's and left hanging out of plaster.
If you want accessories that are brass or chrome & not standard crabtree white you'r gonna get a bill for £28 per point.
How do I know.........I've just invoiced my brother-in-law half the builders quote for doing the above :D

Ha... no, that is silicone that they have used to seal it.
Yuck! Why????

Does that wire say "leave in back"? Do you know what it does?

Did you say this is a newbuild? And you had to connect the lights and switches yourself? :confused:

The wire says "leave coiled up in back". Haven't a clue what it is or why?!?

It's a newbuild yeah, it alreayd had a switch but I wanted to fit a dimmer instead.

Anyway... all fixed now and sorted!!!

So thanks for everyones help.
