External lighting and wiring requirements
Thank you. Unfortunately it was kitchen stuff, fridge most importantly ie would have wanted to use power. Guess sticking some tape around the exposed N/E to ensure don't touch is the way forward- Mjward

On that note, obviously the RCD kept tripping as I was fitting the lights (lesson learnt for next time to have made the connection to circuit last), with the switched of MCB doing nothing to stop the N & E circuits being still connected. Other than making sure next time I make connecting the...- Mjward

Was part of the issue. Connected it up and nothing. Then opened up the junction box next to the light fitting and although also questionable (earth sleeving seems to be optional) did not fix it. So moved on to the next item, the wall light, and low and behold there was lonely line terminated...- Mjward

Sorry you're right, its been a long day, actually meant H07RN-F. I'm against the clock from installation perspective, need it in tomorrow as access gets restricted from Tuesday. Worst case I stick with the SWA I've got on hand, but ideally switch to NYY-J or H07RN-F if I can get hold of on a...- Mjward
