ConFused about light mystery

Yeah the three browns comprise in, out which should be together and the other the switched line to the light from that dimmer. So two browns into common and the other to L1 at the switch. Trial and error will solve it.

Thank you. This solved it. I'm still a bit perplexed because when I originally did it there was definitely 3 wires going to 3 separate terminals...

Maybe an ignorant question but is there any likelihood that by connecting two lives I could be creating a fire hazard? Everything is working peacefully now.

Dunno about you Camerabloke, but that could get a bit personal don't you think, think about it for a minute "everything you have touched"

I can't say for camerabloke, but that wasn't on my mind when I posted.

Sounds like the original switch was configured/designed differently to your current one....

Unless it was two way switching which it certainly does not look like there must have been two in one terminal. Job done now.

Turn on the dimmer and try to turn your kitchen light on to see if there is a feed in feed out wired wrong

Job is done.
