Need help wiring new light switch

[Akshay]

Hi can someone help me wire up a new light switch please? I've posted pics of both the old set-up and the new switch. The current switch is wired up as shown and is a 2 gang switch supplying 2 sets of lights but is not 2-way. The new switch looks alot different to the old one which is what confused me.

The bottom right-hand COM is where the live feed comes in.

Can someone direct me how to wire up the new switch so I get the same result - 2 independently switching lights.

Thanks.

Old switch - controls 2 separate lights indendently

New switch

why not do it the same as the one you have?

if you look the terminals have the same "names" just both the com ones are at the top of the new one, but on the old one is at top one is at bottom

Thanks breezer - so I just wire up the same as before assuming that the COM and L are the same thing?

 

[breezer]
