Hi newbie here. Actually I'm a chartered electronics engineer but am often mystified by the dark magic of domestic wiring!
I have a kitchen counter fed by a live feed which comes up through a quarry tiled floor. I want to move the counter and disconnect that feed. I obviously don't want some...

Hi all
Some time ago, we removed a wall light in our lounge... Unsure of what to do with the remaining wire, I put the live and neutral into separate choc block segments, then taped them up separately.
It has been left like that for some quite time. But we are now having a spurge to finish...
I am fitting a timed bathroom fan into my bathroom.
As you can see from the picture below there are 3 terminals L N & S/F. No-where to terminate the CPC, there is also no room inside the enclosure for a chocolate block terminal or a Wago connector.
Any ideas?
