Hello All,
Just signed up here with my first question,

Ive moved into a house and in the kitchen there use to be under cabinet Lighting,

Fluro Tube Style,

There is a 2 Gang Switch In the kitchen, One For the main lights and one for the under Cabinet lighting,

Now one side is still wired up but the other side the wired are left taped up!!!

I will be Replacing Them with LED Strip Lighting Which requires a driver For Each Strip,

So Here is my question! What wire goes where!!!

Here is a quick diagram of how it looks at the minute and what outputs i have available on the drivers,
(the orange wires being uninsulated)

Any help would be appreciated dont fancy leaving these wires just taped up!!

 
suggest getting a local spark to connect up safely. if you've got the strip lights and drivers, then it's only about 1 hour's work.
 
correct your spark will use the proper connectors and sleeves or terminal enclosure.
taping a connection is considered as only a temporary repair and should be repaired properly as soon as applicable
and in many cases may earn you a butt chewing from a lot of sparks
