Loop in at The Switch - 3 Gang 2 Way

[uksparks]

You know, I hate it when people loop at the damn switch...

This job I'm doing at the moment, there's probably 8 or so light switches I'm moving to opposite walls, all looped at the switches, what a pain in the bum, to be honest it would have easier to rewire the light circuit.

You sound like some sort of guru Ray! I can just imagine you seated in front of the almighty swith, picturing and visualising it's inner workings.

Ray is the Dalai Lama of Electricity!

OP don't listen to this bunch of clown shoes! They're all wrong!

Connect all the browns together and all the blues together in two connector blocks. Any cores left go in the switch. Bada bing bada boom. Kapiche?

Bevan might have been right, doesn't mean a bunch of Neutrals are wrong.

Bevan might have been right

There's no 'might have been' about it!

 

[Silly Sausage]

Happen!

I suspect you might not be so quick to use a Blair quote.

There's no 'perhaps' about it either!

No, I'm not particularly a Bliar fan lol, nor am I much of a New Labour fan. I'm stauch Old Labour though, maybe a bit of a bolshevik, a union man through and through.

This isn't helping the OP much,mixing politics with electrics...although...Tory=blue=neutral,Labour=old red=line,Green party=cpc,and,i suppose the Liberals are the strappers,working from any end...UKIP?...any colour as long as it's red,white and blue...i could do this all night,i'm off to bed :thinking:

Well they'd probably scrap this EU harmonisation malarkey and have us back on the old pre 14th edition Red, White and Blue, so yeah. UKIP all the way! lol

bell them out. draw it out on paper, then wire up. unfortunately there ain't a app for this.

That's the way, if you're not sure draw a diagram and look at it until you can make sense of it.
Use your brains!
