We are currently having our house plastered and thinking about multi outlet ceiling roses (something like this) http://tinyurl.com/go4cfmg . The house has been re wired. I am fairly capable of wiring up straight forward stuff like ceiling roses, but i am confused as how i would wire these things up given the wiring we have (as looks quite complicated)

I have attached the three photos of how the wiring was on the lighting circuits (all now in terminal blocks and switched off!) and i was thinking that i would wire these outlet ceiling roses (as they dont appear to come with any connectors) with something like http://tinyurl.com/gvx5map (or 3, 4 way version)

The question is how would i wire these lights up if i used the above connectors , or would i be better using terminal blocks?, If someone could guide for each photo as they all seem slightly different, that would be much appreciated

If of course its not possible using the connectors i am thinking then please let me know and i may have to rethink my plans

They look like straightforward ceiling roses.....

I hope you kept track of the switched lives.

Thanks for that. Yes all noted and photographed cabling at switches etc
A lot of those wires have brown and blue sleeving on them. It is very important not to lose which wires have the sleeving on them as they are very significant.
See BAS's links to find out why.
If you lose a sleeve you may be faced with connecting 3 identical looking blue wires and you'll need a multimeter and/or an electrician to sort them out!
