Hi all,

I hope you're very well.

(The switch goes to a 10W LED)

Is the above wiring going to be safe please, especially given the way the ring main is treated at the top of the picture?

(You might wish to leave aside any UK regulations as the above scenario is in a different country)

Is this safe, who knows you have only shown a small part of the circuit. Are those blues also lives, are the blues part of the same circuit, is there another two way switch.

Thanks for pointing out and sorry for not making clear.

The blue wires are a pair of switch live that go to another 2-way switch before going to the 10W LED. (I assumed folks would know!)

Both switches are rated for 10A.

The focus in my question is whether it's safe to join the L(in) and L(out) in the way above.
