Hi guys I'm wondering if someone more knowledgeable than me can help with a wiring question I have.
I am renovating a flat and have come across a double gang light switch in the lounge which isn't switching on the lights. I have already checked the bulbs which are ok but on opening the light switch I found the connections look different to what I normally see.
I have attached pictures for you to check. I'm not sure if the previous tenants tampered with the switch so unsure how to rewire it. Could someone please check and tell me what changes I need to make in order to get the lights working again please? From what I remember when I took the picture last night the 2 twisted brown wires into the switch are live but the single brown isn't. I'm sure the switch needs a connection on the bottom of the switch too.
Thanks in advance.
