Hello all,
i am currently trying to wire a metal partition that has two metal push button switches. The lights consist of two regular ceiling tile flourescents and 2 emergency light flourescents. When I connect a regular switch to the lights they all work fine. When I connect the metal push switches the lights will only stay on if I hold the button down. When I release them the emergency lights come on as if there is no power. I have no instructions and no markings on the switches as these have been been bought second hand and I have been asked to fit them. I am obviously missing something obvious so if any one could point me in the right direction I would be most grateful
thanks
