Hi all,

Help required for kitchen light.. aius integrated led. Original light was a strip light which was removed before I got to it. All wires were separated.

Put a ceiling rose up and connected. Connected light and both kitchen lights do not function...

A switch in living room for the landing light

Possibly haven't found live switch wire...

Neutral is the name given to the conductor(wire) which completes the circuit from the load back to the supply.

It is NOT a generic term for any old blue or black wire.

I found switch live wire out of the 3 neutrals.
No you didn't. There were only two neutrals.

If I am wrong than that's fine. I'm just looking for a solution to the problem. Been let down by electricians so thought I'd seek help here.

Switching black wires around I get different results but not what I'm looking for. I thought all live wires stay together also the earth. Then 1 black wires is a live switch and other 2 are neutral?
 
I have a multi meter. 1 black wire beeps. Other 2 do not. Beep still there when switching on and off the switches.
 
Can I suggest you ask the person who took it down for a copy of the photo they took or diagram they made before they took it down. If they didn't do either ask them to pay for a sparks to fix it.
