Hi peeps I thought I'd give you an update, Due to this project becoming so complicated I done what I felt was the right thing and contacted an electrician! I heard he was there for some time, but it's all in working order now and there are a houseful of happy (cooled) people. When I...

mapj1, phew, that sounds a bit complicated to me :o Switch 1 is when you first come in to the house. One switch is for the outside light, the other is the mainroom light (which is the one I'm changing). Switch 2 is by the stairs, one switch is for a light upstairs (which is on another...
