Hello electric folk

Cheers, and thanks for the help too ! :thumbsup: 1596231430 Cheers littlespark, if I've learnt anything it's to never start tinkering with mains electricity until you've had at least 4 glasses of wine, it helps you focus :thumbsup:

Illuminated Rocker Switch Conundrum !?!

Ok, no problem, at least I've learned a couple of things today. I'm going to do some research / study on how these illuminated switches work as I really am out of my depth, I will come back stronger and better and, in time, grow to be one of Europe's most powerful sources of live and neutral...

Illuminated Rocker Switch Conundrum !?!

Hi westward10 and DPG . . . Here are a couple of snaps . . . not sure if this makes it any clearer. Obviously the face plate and lid is taken off the unit, but basically the power switch would be on the front - poking through the face plate. (don't worry I am not connecting this to the mains...

Illuminated Rocker Switch Conundrum !?!

Illuminated Rocker Switch Conundrum !?!

Cheers for the reply westward10. I've probably not explained myself very well . . . I am able to switch the unit on - ('unit' = device this switch is controlling) - if I connect the live and neutral in the correct way . . . hold on, time for another of my excellent high quality illustrations ...
