I'm looking to replace a new build 2 way switch in my kitchen and I want to confirm my logic.

I will need to take the current earths to the metal back box and then to the new metal switch. ( I know the screws should do that but I guess it's an extra layer of safety.

Then to replace my current plastic switch which. Currently uses l11,l12 ECT

Gang 1:

L Connect wire that was on COM1

L1 Connect wire that was on L11

L2 Connect wire that was on L12

Gang 2:

L Connect wire that was on COM2

L1 Connect wire that was on L21

L2 Connect wire that was on L22
