I need to fit a new shower pull switch and I need some help with the wire colours! OK OK I'm not that stupid but I have a red, black, blue and brown wire and also the earth wires. On the switch there is a Live in and out and a neutral in and out. My question is which wire goes in which space!:dead:
 
I'm assuming this is a DIY job because you didn't state you have any electrical qualifications in your profile. The problem with bathrooms is that they're very high risk areas and anyone getting a shock in a bathroom is far more likely to be killed than elsewhere in the house. Shower pull switches are also notoriously difficult to get the wiring in and connect up so I'd strongly urge you in this case to get a professional sparky in to do this job. If it's a like-for-like replacement it should easily be less than an hour including testing of the circuit so it shouldn't be too expensive and well worth it for peace of mind.
