Neutral lighting wire

[mwatsonxx]

I hope you don't think that either he or I are advocating deliberately installing 'borrowed neutrals', or suggesting that anyone should deliberately install them today, do you?

Thats the impression I was left with, because you did'nt understand the problem and that's why you asked me for clarification.

Do you have RCDs in your consumer unit? Are the lighting circuits on different RCDs? If yes to both, then they are the same neutral.

Just to reaffirm, this advice is nonsense. If there was one RCD then the advice would be correct. But he said RCD's ie more than one, that means the neutrals associated with either RCD have to be separate.

Just to reaffirm - you are repeating your mistake.

Look at the OP's question

Can anyone tell me if the lighting circuit for my first floor is all on 1 MCB then does the mean they all share a same neutral wire?

If his lighting circuits are on different RCDs, and (as seems a correct assumption, they aren't tripping all the time) then he can't have the L & N for a light from different circuits, can he.

You aren't very good at this, are you....

Wrong again.

That is not the reason you were left with that impression.

You were left with this impression because you aren't very good at this.

You know I was not responding to the ops question, I was responding to the advcie given.

Why don't you stop making stupid pointless comments

You were responding to advice given as a result of the OP's question.

Advice which you did not understand because you aren't very good at this.

It is not I who is making stupid pointless comments, because it is not I who isn't very good at this.
