Hi guys. I normally undertake all my own electrical work and then get it inspected by my brother in law. At the moment he's away on holiday and I have a question about some slimline undercupboard lights i have just fitted in my kitchen.
How do I connect them to the wall switch. I changed the switch to a 2 gang 2 way which i had laying around.1 switch for the main light which works fine and 1 switch for the new lights. I attempted to connect the wires up to the switch before i fitted the lights but was unable to get them working.I linked the 2 com connections with a piece of red wire to get a feed to the other side of the switch but didn't know where to stick the other 2 wires from the new lights.The new lighting cable has just brown and blue so I have temporarily put a plug on the end to use them for now.
Any help for my 1st post will be greatly appreciated.
