Hi all
I'm wanting to install an outside security light which will go on the outside wall of my garage. On the inside of the same wall there is a single switch that operates the internal garage light.
I was hoping to convert to the single to a double switch, with one switch controlling each light. I understand that I will need a neutral for the outside light which is not often found at the switch and I might need to pull a neutral from the light itself.
I've had a quick look at the switch after work and was expecting to see just live and switch live (and earth), but there are actually 2 red (one connected to unmarked terminal and other to L2), and a black wire connected to L3, plus earth.
Long story short, am I in luck and one is a neutral, or is this setup just an extra live?
