Having got rid of the redundent cables, removed the surplus junction

Everything labelled, no redundant cables, the earths connected to proper
terminals (and sleeved). There's still one flaw - there's no sign of
equipotential bonding in the bathroom. There's an RCD on the shower
circuit, though, and the shock risk from the lights should be pretty low
since they're out of reach without standing on something, so it can wait
for now.


Nice. What brand/model of junction boxes are those? (I don't think
I've seen them before.)

That's it - or at least that's the one on the left. The other two are
Surewire SW7M-MF. There's a subtle catch with using both - they look
very similar, but the order of connections for both the lights and power
in/out is reversed between them.
