[QUOTE="fullpint, post: 484573, member: 31628"] Hi - I am trying to change a light fitting. The existing light is on a single switch, and the out of the ceiling are three wires, live, neutral and earth. The new light fitting needs two lives. It has L1, L2, N and E. The fitting has four bulbs. The neutral from each bulb all meet up in the terminal and go to one place. But the live from two bulbs goes to L1 and live from the other two bulbs go to L2. The instructions assume I have two lives coming in. Can I wire all four into L1? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
