did any of the N have a brown or red sleeve on it? because one of the N is a live wire

No, one of the BLUES is live.

Your terminology helps perpetuate the assumption that blue is neutral, which is why this problem arises over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.

good point as it cant be a neutral if its a live but i ment what he thinks is a neutral is a live.
