OMG i have never seen such an abortion, the proper way to do it would have been a galvanised Y box with a stuffing gland and some flex coming out to the terminal block, your way is unsafe and to put it mildly very amateurish . Good luck with getting your sparks to connect that up as there is no...

There is no law dictating what colours to be sleeved with neutral and cpc, but both the NICEIC and ECA recommend the black be the cpc and the grey be the neutral, this is to disassociate black with being neutral in the new harmonized colours. Nick

Standard colours would be brown as live, black sleeved as earth and grey sleeved as blue as neutral. Your sparks will probably take exception to you deciding to use brown as an earth as would most competant people. Nick

what exactly are you asking as you say new armoured cable in one sentence then old style twin and earth in the next ? Rephrase your question and we will be able to help better. Nick

Lead pipe has not been acceptable for a good number of years now for...

i am officially christened Zippy Liverchunks lol :D

simple typing error with my big fingers sorry . Anyways you have checked that its suitable for a bathroom havent you ?? if not then .......... I dont belieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeve it LOL Nick

Have you made sure the light your putting up is suitable for use in bathrooms? by the soind of it , metal and four spots i suspect it is not. You need to check out the zones in bathrooms and make sure your fitting is really suitable. Nick

Any luck yet MrsGuard??? have you sortedit out Nick

you have turned it back on at the fusebox havent you ? if so then yes the connections must be wrong you have tried using the other two way switch and see if that makes it come on

The switch you took off had three connections yes? and the new one has the same yes? in that case the connections are there somewhere,but it seems you have confused them somewhere, does it just not work at all or are you getting the light staying on or what ? Nick

have you tried the one on its own in common and the other two in the other two terminals Nick

you said you connected them to L1 and L2 , what about common??? if there is nothing in there it wont work, Nick
