Good evening.
My son in law has moved into a 5 year old house with a conservatory. There is a 3 core and earth lighting cable poked through from the house into the conservatory which has never been attached to a light fitting. There is only ONE switch serving this light NOT two.
My question is how do I wire this into a new metal light fitting?
Assuming the brown to be live and the earth being the obvious bare unsheathed strand, which is the neutral .....grey or black? And can I close off the unused (grey or black) with a terminal block?
Thank you in anticipation

- TL;DR
- Wiring a light fitting with 3 core and earth which is served by only 1 switch.
