Great. Thanks a lot guys. I’ll keep you updated once done.

I checked the 2x old cable on the wall and both are in different size. I presumed the cable going to the light is 1mm and to the socket is 1.5mm.. so in this case I will get the 1mm and 1.5mm respectively. One more thing, is this type of electrical connectors recommended to be placed inside IP66...

Thanks guys, just came back from holiday and about to do the work this week with some of your guidance above. I Have some question though, what sort of electric cable (conductor size) should I use 1.5mm or 2.5mm? Is it safe to run 2 x cables in 1 conduit? Thanks

Thanks for the replies. Any suggestion the proper way to rewire? All I know is use a choc box connector. And please see attached photo where the old cables run: 1st cable connected to weather proof double socket to power up flood light and extension cord (for cctv), the other cable goes to the...

Hi guys hope everyone is well and safe. As the title above, I am planning to replace the old electric cable from the wall, problem is, it’s embeeded and the only option (for what I think) is cut the wire (leaving few inches) install IP rated angle junction box and extend (re-wire) a new...

Success!!! All done! Thanks a lot EFLl! You’re the best!(y)(y)(y)

Sorry my bad. So to be clear before I proceed, is this correct EFLl? Old COM Yellow wire to New COM1 Old L1 Blue wire to New L1 1 Old L2 Red wire to New L1 2 Old COM Red wire to New COM2 Old L2 Black wire New to L2 2 Thanks

Yes like the old contactum switch.. that’s why I assumed the connections are the same

Ok so L2 1 red wire will go to L1 2? I’ll go and try.

Hello there sorry for bothering you but could you help me out please as I am a bit confused.. I am changing all our bedroom switch aswell (1 gang switch) but upon opening the old switch, the wiring are different and don’t know which one is live. Correct me if I am wrong with the attached photos...

That’s great. Thanks again for your help (y)

Wow thanks for the advice EFLImpudence, forgot to tell, the switch # 1 and switch # 2 (upstairs) switches on and off the light upstairs, so the wiring diagram that you laid out still the same when installing new light switch in switch #2?

Hi EFLl, I succesfully changed all our light switch except for Switch #1. From this... Old COM Yellow wire (is this live?) to New COM1 Old L1 Blue wire to New L1 1 Old L2 Red wire to New L2 1 Old COM Red wire to New COM2 Old L2 Black wire New to L2 2 Into this: Followed carefully the...

All done! Everything’s fine. Thanks again for your help Stem(y)

Many thanks for your valuable time, helpful and good advice Stem! I’ll share and update you soon once I installed the Hive. (y)

So to summarize: •BDR91 (N) to Hive (N) •BDR91 (L) to Hive (L) •BDR91 (linking L and A) to Hive (linking L and 1) •BDR91 (B) to Hive (3) All very similar to the OP. Is that right Stem?:)

Oh dear!:( Yeah I’ll sort it out once I got the Hive I ordered this week and change the loop wire to brown. By the way Stem, you’ve mentioned the green/yellow wire should be used for earth but from the OP photo the green/yellow wire (with a brown sleeve) was put on terminal 3 (heating on) on the...

Thank you so much Stem! Here is my Honeywell by the way: And out of curiosity, could you please tell me what’s the purpose of linking L to A? (blue wire)

I have the same Honeywell BDR91 and planning to replace it to Hive single channel receiver. My combi boiler is Vaillant Ecotec Plus 832. Should I just follow the same pattern as the above? The honeywell wiring of Lee42534 is the same and I am pretty sure it’s likely but just want to be very...
