Yeah, makes sense. Thanks for your help guys

This makes a lot more sense now, I suppose the switched live must connect to the pendant behind the wall somewhere. I couldn't understand how there didn't seem to be a live coming in to the junction box but I think this explains it

This is a great question! I think this sheds a bit more light on the situation So I have attached 3 pics, the 1st just shows the wall with the supply coming in from 1 and the cable going down to switch 2, with 3 going into the ceiling to feed another pendant/switch. 1 is the supply coming in...

No it's definitely not a 2 way switch

Could it be that the old red/black wiring is the wrong way around and the blue cable of 1 is actually live? I don't see how this circuit works otherwise

3 is definitely not the incoming supply though

1 is definitely the incoming supply, I've traced all the wires back. 2 is the switch for 1 and 3 is a new light & switch

What do you mean by permanent supply?

I'm wondering if anyone can help me make sense of this junction box. I'm renovating an outhouse and was going to replace this with a maintenance free type as it will be boxed in, I also wanted to add a new light and switch, but I don't understand how this circuit works currently. 1 - comes from...
