Yep it's earthed from the ceiling fixing, screws together with a bolt so it's earthed

We have light!! Must have been that blue, cheers both appreciate all the help

Nope no trip just no lights at all, earth's all seated together.

As a slight update, this is where I'm at. After connecting this , not getting anything when switching the power back on. Am I missing something blatantly obvious? With the brown from the light going to the switching and blue going to blue?

Sweet, thank you all. Appreciate the help. Just needed the reassurance!

Would you recommend these over my idea? Or doesn't entirely matter? Sorry to hijack, you may have not even read the thread

Don't know if they're a newer thing but some shops local to me have them, look handy

Yep! Perfect that's all I wanted, thank you for the reply. No issues with linking the wagos or anything? Assuming it could be done similarly with terminal blocks, putting all 6 browns in one side and the ceiling switching live in the other side of the block? And then same for the blues?

Metal, so one earth coming from the light fitting (it's attached to the ceiling bracket)

My bad, looks like it's been braided together with one of the others, initially only looked like one to me

They'll be sat inside the light fitting, they don't need to be in a box then do they?

So this is the state of the light fitting at the moment and the second image is the state of the ceiling.

How come? Surely all the brown wires from the light fittings need to go together? And then just your switching wire from the ceiling also going with them? Leaving the rest of the looped browns in the connector block already there? (Won't be touching this)

Sorry, should have been more clear. The image I attached of the existing wire has since been taken down and cut away a bit ( the pendant wires were shortened), but is going back up , so all the bit below the connector block has basically been removed. So I'm now left with 6 blue, 6 brown and...

Yeah so that looks relatively like what I've got going on here. Minus 1 earth maybe? One of the pairs coming from the ceiling does not have an earth? So if all is well and we've confirmed that looks good, is it just a case of making the 6 blues and 6 browns into 1 wire each in theory and they...
