Just to be sure 1) run 1.5mm t&e from junction box to light rose. 2) at the rose connect blue to the neutral side of the light drop (N-loop in) 3) at the rose connect brown to the L-loop-in 4) at the junction box connect brown to L-loop-in 5) at the junction box connect blue to...

Now that is :twisted:

Well size could be an issue but it probably does not have enough separate terminals to allow for the connections you need.

No need to tell me, I'm not likely to send you food parcels anyway.

Yes that is correct. Don't forget to brown sleeve/brown tape any blue wires used for switched lives.

Actually that's 8 of 9, 7 of 9s older, cross dressing brother :twisted:

Well as long as you could get out again :mrgreen:

That junction box will prove difficult to terminate the cables. Have a look at this link. http://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Technical/DataSheets/Hager/JB_Guide.pdf Also have a look at the various methods on this link - look at the chock-box...

Doh, of course, I should have known :lol: The actual prop from the set? I thought data looked human?

Yes, the existing earth (at the ceiling rose) will connect to the earth terminal in the new junction box. Then it will (along with neutral & switched live) go to the new lamp but the earth will just be sleeved and folded back within the lamp.

Sounds like yo have connected to switched live not permanent live? You need to connect to a permanent live via a single pole switch which you could site at the entrance to the loft maybe. http://www.diynot.com/wiki/electrics:lighting:lighting_circuit_layouts

Essentially yes. I usually sleeve it (fully - no bare end) and fold it back.

No, you can carefully push it into the ceiling void after wiring.

Not sure if I understand? Can you re-phrase? Have a look at this: http://www.diynot.com/wiki/electrics:lighting:lighting_circuit_layouts

Just bring the earth into the lamp and sleeve it with green/yellow sleeving or G/Y tape.

Actually, I have to ask. What on earth is that contraption? :lol:

They look like cold cathode lamps (only one wire to each end by the looks of it) Often used for illuminating the inside of a PC. Have a look at this site http://www.xoxide.com/bluecathode.html

You will need to replace one of the cable drops that goes to the socket you want to move. In other words you need to make it longer with a longer replacement. If you will not be able to reach the original position then you can not join the cable at that point because all connections must be...
