[QUOTE="Manator, post: 416959, member: 9561"] Hi Taffery, you will have a power in and a power out (loop) and a switch wire. Without test equipment it would be a case of trial and error to get them right. One of the black cables will be paired with one of the red to form the switch wire. Is there any marking on any of the black cables? If there is then you are in luck as that would be the switch cable and goes into the LOOP with the red cables, the paired red would go to the lamps LIVE out.[U] [/U] [/QUOTE]
