I have fitted a exterior light switch, which works fine until i flick the light switch. it then trips out.the wiring is as follow:
form the mains to the light switch i have black in L1
red in L2
earth to the mounting box
Then I double these wires up to the light.
When I turn the power on, the light comes on and when i flick the light switsh it blows.
can anyone tell where i am going wrong, I have a feeling that the wiring in the light switch is not quite right.
