Reply with quote Thanks

Hello,

There is a two way switch in our bathroom and only one light. only one switch turns it on and off (pull string).

I want to replace the current light fitting but there are 3 cables (9 wires) and not sure what wires to put where in the new light fitting as it only has the usual 3 terminals.

Any help will be much appreciated!!!

well have a look at the "read here first" at the top, but you will need an additional connector block for the permenant live so there will be then four connector blocks in your new fitting
