    Kitchen downlights, rocker switch + JB. Switched Live?

    Thanks. I'll take a look at this. I have heard that mentioned before but as the existing wiring is in place and currently switched off/isolated at CU. I'm basically just linking up to the JB that was disconnected when the cornice was replaced/repaired. I just didn't see what order the cables...
