Remember the cold environment will seriously diminish the working life of the batteries

Fed via photocell too
Thanks understand a bit more now, I’m back tomorrow so will check the wiring cheers for your helpThe supply to the battery pack should be from the PL. When the test switch is in the test position then power is cut fooling the light into thinking a loss of power has occurred and the light should switch to battery back up. When not in the test position the batteries will charge indicated by, usually, a green led being lit.
The supply to the lamp, via the contactor and photo cell should be is the switched live and should go in the appropriate terminals on the light.
Please tell me you are not still at that caravan site
You have a good memory and no I’m not hahaPlease tell me you are not still at that caravan site

Good thanks, it was split phase supply had SSE come out to test aswell as they had one of there consultants check before we even went to say it was 3 phase but it wasn’t must have forgot his testers hahaHow did that job go?
Everything work out ok for you?
No crack on Bradley is a sparky. It's the DIYers we tend to not give step by step advice.I would be happy to post a wiring diagram, would this fall foul of no step by step instructions rule?
It’s the contactor bit how do you incorporate thatTo keep it simple think of the test/key switch as the main on/off for the circuit.
RCBO to key switch-leg 1
I’ll have a go won’t be long hahaNo crack on Bradley is a sparky. It's the DIYers we tend to not give step by step advice.
That just seems like a lot of faff...Strima
The switched live side feeds direct to the led geartray 230v via the pins and the emergency/perm side go through the module witch should have a built in battery witch would power a second set of led,s on the geartray via the battery in the event of a power outage
