I am replacing an old volvex 2 gang 1 way switch. I have searched but cant find my exact issue, but apologies if this has been asked before.
In my old switch, 3 seperate circuits appear to come into the back box.
All 3 black wires are connected in the back box, as is the earth.
So, 3 seperate red wires are connected to the 2 gang switch, to the A, A1 and B1 terminals. Another short red wire connects A to the B terminal.
Having done some digging, I THINK:
Current A wire goes into a COM terminal
Current short red wire goes between the 2 new COM terminals
Current a1 wire goes into one 1 way terminal, leaving
Current B1 wire to connect to the other one way terminal
Correct? I'm not touching a thing till I'm sure!
TIA
