[ElectriciansForums.net] Please help me to help my friend with his ceiling lights
These two soggy dogs are from Hull. Woof Woof!
 
@David Robinson you need to appreciate that the 3 blacks, 3 reds and 3 earths are 3 sets of one black, red and earth. Each of the sets has a different purpose. 1, Live in, 2, live going out and 3, switch. To work out which set does which, test equipment is needed. Only then can anyone explain how to connect it. Difficult in a forum chat. ;)
 
Can someone please help me with my friends lights he has old wiring and he got new light fitting the wiring from the ceiling he has three red wires and three earth wires and three black wires but only two wires in the new light fittings which are blue and brown please help me to help him
Ask your friend where the original wires were connected to.
