my mate has got new brass switches for his house his dad has done all the single ones but cant do the doubles. ive had a look today and iam well confused the new switch has 6 connectors 2 at the top which are (com),and 4 at the bottom which are 1-2 and 1-2. the old switch has 3 at the top and 3 at the bottom, the top ones from left to right are com1 yellow wire,(3) yellow wire and (2) blue wire. the bottom ones in the same order are (3) no wire,(2) two red wires and (1com) with 1 red wire.
ive tried some combo's today but it either tripped the breaker or the light could only be controled with that switch and not the one up stairs.
can anyone shed some light please. the house is only 4 years old if this helps. all wires are twin and earth the earths are conected to the back box and the yellows are defo yellow not yellow/green.
cheers
