    Klik Lighting?

    Thanks for the quick response :) Yeah I seem to remember it having A on it. Im just running a 3 core pyro from a override switch to an emergency light so the light will have permanent power apart from when the power goes down. So the A is the one I want! Thanks again!

    cctv images jumping

    make sure your cables are all tight, assuming you have a DVR or something of the like to record the footage on. Make sure the cables are well connected to Baluns or the BNCs are screwed on tightly. Id try that before buying a new camera :)

    Dimmer switch connection

    you need to put brown sleeving/tape on the black to show its a live though. and if its a metal face plate dimmer, you need to connect the earth from the face plate to the back box too.

    fan isolator switch

    I usually fit them above the light switch, inline with the top of the door casing since the switch is normally the place to pick the power up from. When you start putting switches in bathrooms youll need to check the zones for the location.
