Yes, if you are using 1mm² T&E you can probably fit three or four in the switch live terminals.

You really need to photograph what you have found inside the junction box - for example does the switch live (your neutral by description) change from blue to brown in the junction box and onto the first ceiling rose - in which case the brown goes to the live at the first ceiling rose and should...

1mm² T&E is fine - where is the joint (junction box?) though - because that has to be accessible. The key point is that the current carrying capacity of the cable must be more than the MCB protecting the circuit. 1mm² T&E ccc is more than twice the 6A breaker. Why does it need signing off?

ELF must have been a little bored.:censored:

Seems strange that you bought lamps and fittings and now want to change them for the GS10. There seems to be a few variations of the GS10 but I quite like this one. Four of them for each room might be a bit of a stretch though.;)

Not so sure since the OP has admitted his previous sins:oops:

It is no illusion, but the OP did state

Lets see.....£16 for indemnity insurance .......£100 plus for EICR.....

If you have more than the minimum size load and compatible bulbs then it sounds like the dimmer hasn't been set up properly. Assuming the firmware is 10B or later (the firmware is usually on a sticker on the side of the dimmer module) check the instructions they will show you how to change the...

Makes a change for me to be quicker;) even managed to spell most things write..... 5 wires would be great.

:p

If the standard two way switch operation applies to your situation then you would have three wires in the downstairs (Red, blue and yellow) into say C,L1 and L2 respectively and the upstairs switch would have the same red, blue and yellow wires into C,L1 and L2. In addition the incoming live...

Just swap your live and load from the dimmer to Com and L1 for each switch respectively.

Could be one of your grill or oven elements is on the way out.

I take it you have no sockets in the garage you could use?

Why would you want to fit them in skirting boards? Don't think CPC sell 25mm depth either: http://cpc.farnell.com/appleby/sf636/dual-metal-back-box-35mm/dp/PL11789?ost=dual+backbox Tell a lie: http://cpc.farnell.com/appleby/sb676/dual-box-25mm/dp/PL02641

According to the instructions while you have a potential element total of 4700w the oven controls will only allow one of the elements on at any one time. So your maximum rating is 2500w which means you can just plug it into its existing socket using a 13A fused plug. It is recommended, but not...

If the light worked before, then there would have been absolutely no need to alter the previous wiring arrangement. You simply would have added the new cable linking the original ceiling rose to the new ceiling rose - wiring brown to line (switch live) blue to neutral and earth to earth in both...

If at the moment the switch operates only one light and you wish to add another light from the same switch, then wiring it as I suggested is only the only way to do it - assuming the switch has a standard arrangement. However, it would help if you could supply photographs of the main ceiling...
