Switch with neon

[tygerbright]

Hi Rocky

This is the rear of the neon switch

So ...

The two browns together = SUPPLY L
The brown and black together = LOAD L
The two blue and grey together = SUPPLY N

Is that right?

Yes it is, and also there needs to be an earth connection to the switch.
in this case you seem to have a basic grasp, but no disrespect would recomend you do a bit of research on how switches and circuits work to assist you in the future.

You basically have 2 twin and earth cables and 1 three core and earth cable marked, mains, lights and fan.

The fan is the 3 core, using a grey Neutral, therefore you could if desired, have the MAINS Blue and the FAN Grey in the Supply N and put the Blue cable marked LIGHT on its own into the Load N terminal

Is that right?

Yes, you also need to connect the earth wires to the earth terminal on the switch as shown in the original picture of the old switch.

He could still put all three neutrals in the N SUPPLY terminal (or N LOAD for that matter), but

surely the Load N will be the one in the cable with the Load L.

Thanks Flameport - connected the Earth up as well.

Never encountered one which would not drive anyone to distraction if they lived with it.
