New Light fitting. Old wires

[Will Arnold]

Hi everyone

I need to replace my new light but I have no idea where to put the old wires that are currently coming out of my ceiling. I've tried lookong it up but havent found the right video to explain it to me

Any help would be great.

well you need another junction strip thing to put the 3 red wires from the old middle terminal in

FIRST, The old black that is connected to brown needs marking somehow so you don't get it mixed up. You could put red tape around it. This then connects to the new light L

The other 2 black wires go to N
The green wires to the new light middle terminal

The existing bare earth wires don't seem to have sleeving fitted, this should be provided as you fit the new light fitting.
