Help: Wiring up emergency lighting

[liamwalk99]

Trying to wire up emergency lighting, for some reason, this doesn't turn on at all, even when power is isolated it does not come on, so ive added pictures to see if wiring and everything is correct, tested to ensure there was power coming in when CB was on, and that there was none when it was off, any help appreciated, thanks.

Try rotating the tube, make sure it's making contact, seen that a few times

IS IT A NEW FITTING OR ARE YOU TRYING TO REPAIR AN OLD ONE.

It is a older fitting, but not sure how long its been there for

I think you need to prove whether the fitting is good or bad. Sounds faulty.

Liam, how are you checking the voltages, what type of meter are you using?

It's a greenlee multimeter, CB was on, tested getting 240v roughly, turned CB off, hoping light would be on, no light or battery light, and 0v tested
