Replacing a ceiling rose with a light that only has L/N/E co

[fireman22]

get a connector block and put the two reds in it then then black and the blackwith red are your live & neutral

There is already a connector block with brown and blue, why do i need another connector block?

 

[Spark123]

So at the moment you have 4 pieces of connector block in the top of the fitting. You need to connect them as follows:

What type of switch do you have, is it a dimmer switch?

 

[paulic2276]

Yes I have a dimmer switch but my connector block is a three piece block. the earth wires connect to a screw on the light.

The block on the lamp has one brown wire and one blue wire connected and the a loop whole which has nothing connected to it

You need to connect the 2 red wires from the cables in the ceiling to the empty loop hole in the block. Then connect the black wire with the red sleeve to the brown wire. Then connect the black wire to the blue wire. Connect all the earth wires to the screw on the lampholder.

If you cannot do this, or you do not understand what I have written, please get a friend who knows about electricity, to do the job for you.
