Hi everyone, I’m replacing my downlights because they aren't fire rated.

I have two separate 3-core & earth cables coming into one junction box, and have a tail down to the old lights.

I'm replacing this with a Luxna Pro LXFRD/5-7/CCT4 that has a driver with only 3 slots per terminal (L, E, N).

Since I have more than 3 'Live' wires from the old setup, what is the best way to terminate these safely into the driver without losing the 2-way switching function? Where do I connect the black cables with the brown sleeves?

Should I use Wagos to consolidate them first? Do I just leave the old junction box? Photos attached!

Thank you!

Where do I connect the black cables with the brown sleeves?

Leave it, exactly as connected, at the moment. Put the four terminal wago, into a box, and run a three core flex to your driver, wired in the wago, in exactly the same terminals as at present. The brown sleeved blacks, are your switch wires, they need to go to the brown of your new three core flex.
