Im trying to install a wall light that runs off one of the mains socket, which is easy enough and have done before, but this time i want to include a 1-way switch between the power and the light.
the switch is labelled L1, L2 and C(ommon).
I have tried wiring it as follows...
Red from light to L1,
Red from Power to C
Connected the 2 black wires together
Connected both earth wires to the earthing point on the switch's blanking plate..
but something is wrong 'cos when i turn the power back on, i cannot get the lamp to work..
What am i doing wrong here?
Cheers
