Got a pic of cables?In my house the lighting circuit is made up of
One live and earth in same sheathing. Then 2 separate neutrals.
I haven’t seen this arrangement before and I’m wondering what this is.
the L goes to the 1st switch, then is looped from switch to switch, each switch supplying a S/L to it's light. sometimes there may be junction boxes hidden away.
Why change. If it's installed correctly and cable is good, the odds are it'll be OK for another fifty.....My house is the same, ie. Red+earth and then separate neutral. There's also a traditional round junction box in the loft which I am going replace with either DIN terminals or wagos. Mind you I've been going to sort it out for about fifteen years now.
