Hi I am having a problem with my bedroom and bathroom lighting ,in my bedroom I have 2 downlighters that are switched from 2 dual pole switches at either on of the bedroom,these downlighters are 12v fed from a transformer in the loft ,I also have 1 mains light on my ceiling too,I'm wanting to remove the 12v and connect up more mains downlighters to the ceiling light ,however I can't understand how this is all wired . I've attached a picture of the transformers what I'm wondering is if I disconect the transformers and connect the outgoing cables to the mains incoming will the switches still switch the new non 12v lights on Need help switching out some 12v lighting IMG_20191114_133255 - EletriciansForums.net
 
Looks like the CPC has been cut in the outgoing ways to the 12v lighting.

You will need to rewire from the 230v mains in and carry on the circuit to your desired locations.
 
As already said. Wire from mains cable to other lights and make sure not to cut off PC. Remove transformers all together.
