Evening all, I'm working on a project and I would appreciate some thoughts on the solution. The project: - I'm creating a number of lamps from old jars, see example URL below: http://edisonlightglobes.com/Shop/product/jar-lamps/widemouth-preserving-jar-e27-240v-pendant-light/ -...

Indeed in each of the switches there were 2 L1, 2 L2 and 2 COM. In each of the new single gang switches i connected both COM to COM, both L1 to L1 etc.

I was careful when i took the old switches off the label the wires, so i am 100% sure what was L1 in the old switch is L1 in the new switch.

So i did as described above (connected the 2 comm wires from the 2 gang to the 1 comm in the single gang and then the same for the L1 and L2), but now my light is on permanently. Any thoughts?

Perfect, thanks for you help mate....much appreciated!

Basically at either end of the room i have a switch with 2 Com, 2 L1 and 2 L2, this allows me to control the lights at either end of the hall (with the added complexity of being able to control half the hall). I want to replace that with 2 new switches, each with 1 com, 1 L1 and 1 L2, so i...

The hall is about 4 metres long, and there are only 2 lights in the hall (one at either end). Its seems overkill to be able to control the lights in such a way in such a small room. Having a switch at either end which switches all the lights on is what Im looking for.

Evening all, I am simplifying the lights in my hallway and looking to covert the current lighting setup which is a 2 way dual gang switching solution to a 2 way single gang solution. The current setup is: Switch 1..................Switch 2 |-------------------| |-------------------|...

Hi, I hope someone can help explain how to replace my master phone socket. I have a old master socket which is falling to bits and inside it has: white wire - connected to terminal B orange wire - connected to terminal A black wire - not connected to anything green wire - not...

The switch is a 2 gang 1 way switch; so the 2 lights are controlled independently of each other from the single light switch. Tere has been no other works on the house; all i did was changed this one switch and then the problems started, so its go to be linked to this blasted switch.

100% sure thats the only work thats been done today and I'm almost certain that switch is how it was before...but starting to doubt myself now. The wiring should be pretty simple: - Room has 2 individual lights - There is only one light switch so its a one way switch I'm trying to wire up...

So the plot thickens.. I have pulled some slack through and cut both wires to be sure i had not broken them both and still no luck! Wired the old switch up again which i know was working before this issue and still no lights to half of the house. See images below showing the latest progress:
