I've got some lights in the loft with the switch in the passageway below. It's not unknown for the loft lights to be left on all night or even all weekend if I don't notice the switch.
I'd like to replace the switch with one that has a neon indicator. The problem is that the lights have been wired with a loop-in circuit so that the power runs from ceiling rose to ceiling rose and only the switched live is taken down to the light switch. The neon switch I've got seems to require the neutral to be present as the neon is soldered between the live and neutral on the load side of the switch.
Is there any way to wire this so the a neon switch would work without the need to drop another cable from the rose to the switch? Or can you get neon switches that will work without the need for the neutral to be present?
