Is there any reason why electrician would take the power feed in and out cables to the switch instead of the lamp holder / ceiling rose?
Just noticed when swapping out a faulty switch that this is how our electrician has re-wired our house. He's done a full re-wire with power feed going from switch to switch instead of going from ceiling rose to ceiling rose. There was nothing preventing him going from light to light as it was a full refurb with no plaster, ceilings etc. Makes it a complete pig to swap out a light switch as you have an absolute mess of cables in a very small box.
