Hi, I wonder if you could help me
My kitchen / diner has to sets of ceiling lights, one for the kitchen and one for the dining room. The lights are worked via a 1 gang light switch so both sets of lights come on at once.
The problem I have is that I have tried replacing the 1 gang with a 2 gang so I can switch on either the kitchen or dining room lights while not having to have both on. But I'm not sure what wire go where.
At the moment there are two cables coming into the metal box in the wall.Each cable contains a red wire, a black wire and a earth wire. The earth wires are conected to the metal box.
