Afternoon all,
First time poster, hope this is the right place, looking for some advice.
I’ve removed a three bulb light from a bedroom ceiling and revealed a mess of wires protruding from the ceiling. I’ve got two white wires, each with a black, red and earth wire exiting, and two grey wires, one with two red and an earth exiting and one with a blue, brown and earth exiting.
There’s only one light switch in the room and I just want to install a bog standard one bulb ceiling rose, which I’ve installed a few times before.
I can make sense of the attaching the ceiling rose but I’m wondering about all the superfluous wires and what to do with them.
I’ve read about capping them off, tracing back the wires to the source etc, and I’m looking for the most straightforward process for a relative layman.
Any advice would be appreciated.
