But its let down by a lack of identification on the conductors.First light switch I have seen on here without a load of copper conductor exposed.
Merci beaucoupTop spot.
Yes it works. But not sure if I should wire up new switches the same?Does it work properly ?
If those are lives looped in the connector, it looks like you're switching neutrals. Get someone qualified to make sure.
It is a good spot because it appears the lines are looped at a block connector with the neutrals to the switch, possibly. Needs addressing.Without sounding silly can you explain this one a bit please if you can?
Definitely as there could be incorrect polarity.Just wondering if I should get a professional in to wire up new switch
I've no intention of sounding silly, but think about it. If you're switching neutral instead of line what's the result......at the lampholder?Without sounding silly can you explain this one a bit please if you can?

Thank you.When you go to change the bulb after turning power off at the light switch you'll still have a live supply there, so there is a risk of electric shock. Not that I would ever recommend sticking fingers into a light fitting regardless.
