Hi,
I've got two way switching on my hall way. I want to remove this and go to a single switch.
In each switch box, I've got two T&E however one of the T&E has the black wire snipped off. The red from this T&E goes into COM.
The black and red from the other goes into L1 & L2 on both switch boxes.
In the ceiling rose, I only have a single T&E.
Am I right in thinking that most likely the red going into the COM is linking the two switches, and T&E going into L1 & L2 will be joined somewhere in the ceiling, rather than in the back box (and which is how I've previously seen it done).
I think I can disconnect the COM from both ends and that won't be connected to anything else, and then terminate the T&E on one socket and hide it behind a blanking plate and then use my standard switch on the remaining socket?
The reason for all this is that I've got a WiFi switch which doesn't require neutral, but doesn't support 2way switching.
Thanks
Paul
