Thank you. The switches have to be pressed down to turn on the lights and I have mounted the unit with the TOP as marked at the top. I was just puzzled to find a live in Terminal 2 of the wall light section when the wire goes into Terminal 1.

Thank you for your reply. In the old switch L3 wasn't used on top or bottom row of terminals. So I have connected the old L1s to their respective Com, The wall light L2 into the New 1 and the Room light L2 into the other New 1. So I now have black wires in the upper terminals marked 1and red...

Our kitchen rip out starts on Monday, following four week kitchen update at our daughter's house. We are scrapping the cooking range and going to a more normal sized gas four burner cooker. The plan is to install an angled extractor above the hob. But like most things its not a simple "just do...

Thank you's really helpful, and I can now get on with it. Just didn't want to upset the alarm system such that I would need to call out a Service Engineer to sort it out before moving day. Many Thanks
