Rewiring the 2 way landing light switches. Have pulled cables in new colours:
a) Brown/blue/earth from landing ceiling rose to switch carrying live (brown) + switched live (blue with brown sleeve); b) 3 way (new colours)/earth from 1st floor switch to ground floor switch.
I can work out the connection diagram but have two questions:
- Is there a preferred way of using the colours in the 3 way cable ie. which is the switched return?
- What is the correct way to connect the switched return from the ground floor switch to the switched feed to the rose (blue + brown sleeve) in the wall box behind the switch? The old wiring had one of those screw-on "hats" - which I've lost.
Hope this makes sense, (and yeah it's all gonna get checked and signed off by a sparks!).
Thanks, David.
