[QUOTE="Barx, post: 7809, member: 121"] KME, the grey falls under 'The rest' ;) used as a neutral in 3 core. Just using elimination, Brown perm live, black is sleeved brown so should be switched live, that leaves neutral. Obviously it 'should' be tested to 100% but that could be said for any light fitting change, etc. Chances are, as previously mentioned, 1 twin will be loop in, 1 twin will be either loop out or shaver socket (same difference unless you only shave with the light on, lol) 1 twin will be switch wire and 3 core will be for fan. If I am honest (and shoot me as you will) if I turned up to this job I would wire it up as I stated without even bothering to test first. Wire up, Test all is well, amend as required. Afterall he still has the option to get a spark in. [/QUOTE]
