    1 way 2 gang (probably no neutral) to smart switch

    They're on the same breaker, but so is all the lighting upstairs (labelled on breaker as well). Is this an issue? Why does same breaker mean continuous circuit (I presume that this means neutral and live going through all lights). Couldn't one breaker control multiple circuits, or maybe that's...

    Burnt ceiling rose

    I mentioned this in another thread of mine, but it wasn't the main topic. Opened my ceiling rose yesterday and found this (burnt wires I presume). Is this something I can replace, I understand how everything is connected, but could there be damage behind the rose? Many thanks!

    1 way 2 gang (probably no neutral) to smart switch

    Ericmark, did you have any issues with the no neutral other than having to add the capacitor? Are you happy with performance? Have you checked power draw? It does seem like a safer/simpler solution perhaps.

    1 way 2 gang (probably no neutral) to smart switch

    Wow that's very interesting, never considered switching the live/neutral. I Guess I could mark them to make it obvious to anyone that would be working on them, if I were to do this. I would just have to check that the neutrals and browns are on the same circuit, should be able to do that with...

    1 way 2 gang (probably no neutral) to smart switch

    1 way 2 gang (probably no neutral) to smart switch

    I have this 1 way 2 gang here. Each switch controls a separate light. Originally wanted to put a smart switch but not too happy with not having a neutral (I have no neutral right?). Would I be able to put a Sonoff Mini in the ceiling rose to feed off the neutral? Is there any way to have...

    Link-detached single-story extension permitted development

    I've done my best to wrap my head around permitted development but still struggling a bit. Is any of this allowed? See image: https://ibb.co/rFkXMSB I don't see why Green box wouldn't be allowed (potentially subject to party wall agreement) but no-one on the street has done it. Yellow may not...
