Hi all,
Our kitchen has the switch above so the com's are at different ends to each other like the below.
http://lightwiring.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/double-gang-two-way-light-switch2.png
An electrician has changed the light switch in our kitchen to being recessed into the wall rather than the box being on show, but we now have the situation where one of the switches to 1 light is 'on' when the switch is in the 'off' position.
The other switch is ok. To switch on the light you toggle down on the switch.
What could he have done to mess this up and how can I restore it?
[Yes I know I can call him back (which I have) but I am impatient ]
He suggested swapping "up to down" which I have tried but to no avail. The switch acts in the same manner.
Thank you,
Chris
