[QUOTE="Rob252, post: 410529, member: 27188"] Hi all, wonder if you can help; We bough 4 fancy light fittings to fit upstairs and down, 2 seperate lights down and up, all with 2 seperate switches that switch on and off at opposite ends of floor.. (Hope that makes sense) so so I unscrew the stand at White ceiling rose to be presented with the tray of wires. It would have all been simple if all I had to do was fit the bracket under that tray, connect the new fittings brown, blue and green to the relevant connections and hey presto, done! however, the new fittings dome housing has wires in and so won't fit over the wire tray on the ceiling. so what would an electrician do in this scenario? ideally I need to get the tray of wires and connectors into the ceiling, but the trays to big.. Can you get a seperate strip connector or similar? Because there's 4 sets of wires coming from the ceiling, there's too many to squeeze into the provided single connector thing. How do I resolve this ? Any advice would be great!! [/QUOTE]
