I am thinking of fitting a two gang switch in place of the single switch that works the stairs light. I would like one switch to power the two way stairs light and the other switch to power a single light at the bottom of the stair.
The wires in the two way are yellow, red, blue. The yellow being the live. I was wondering whether I could take feed from the yellow, to power the one way lamp I want to fit. Trouble is I do not think either of the other two wires are a neutral. Can anybody suggest what to do?
The two gang switch I have has the contacts Common 1, and two more stated as 2 and 3, not L1 or L2. The second switch on the unit is listed the same, but the other way up. (see diagram)
Switch 2 is the existing switch I want to replace with Switch 1
