Hi
I know this has come up before, so i apologise, but none of the replies of previous posts have answered the question.
I\\\'m replacing a ceiling rose with a spot light. The ceiling rose has the normal 9 wires (3 earth, 2 neutral (black), 2 live (red) and 2 for the switch (1 red and one black with a red sleeve). The spot light just has 3 connector spaces for Earth, Live, and Neutral. I need to know exactly what wires go into these connectors.
I assume the 3 earth from the rose go into the earth space, and the 2 neutrals from the rose go into the neutral space. But what about all the red live wires and the switch wires. Which ones go in and which ones are left out.
I would really appreciate a bog standard \\\"that wire goes there\\\" explanation. I spent 2 1/2 hours trying to sort this and only got as far as getting the light to come on but not able to switch it off.
Cheers
