Discuss Help.. no lights downstairs in my home in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net
2 Electricians????? I wonder if they are actually Electricians.Anyway, as Ive said b4, 2 electricians couldnt work it out, I think it is something really simple, if I knew how to find out where the dead cable was, I would be able to sort, it just odd that all come on when I add the live, surely one should remain off ?
That would explain the extra cable.outside light & hall work, nothing else

Thats a right old cock up joint boxSuccess !!
I couldnt take flooring up as I did too god a job laying it, so I drilled a hole, cough, two holes lol, found ceiling connection & as per pic, all looked good, I disconnected live & rewired. Tested & all back working, must of just been missing the connection. Down side is as I was rewiring light, I crossed over & touched live from upstairs, arms still vibrating !!!
