I know a little about electrics and I just need a little help finishing off my current DIY job.
I'm currently replacing the ceiling as well as the lighting in our dinning room.
I have removed the old down lights which where connected to a small white junction box.
From this junction box are two Grey cables, 1 i guessed would be to the light switch.
I have purchased a pendant light fitting & 3 core cable to connect it to the junction box.
Ive connected the pendant up by following the instructions included but I have a slight problem.
When I switched the power back on the light doesn't go off???
Ive removed the cover to the switch and there is a white cable going to it not gray???
We have recently bought the house and the lighting never worked in here so I dont know if the switch actually works or its even connected the the light in this room.
what would be my next step?
How would I go about adding a new light switch to my new pendant? do I work from the Ceiling rose or the junction box?
ANY help would be great thanks.
