switch wiring oddity
Hi folks,
Not been here for ages 'cos of a new job Down South, hence no diy
apart from weekends!
Anyhoo, got an oddity at a mate's house with the bathroom light. The
switch is outside the door and contains 3 cables, one of which looks
like it contains 2 red wires?! 2 blacks are joined in a choc-block,
one red doesn't go anywhere and the other 3 reds are in the switch.
Ceiling rose has 3 sets of cables, one of which goes to another light
which is being removed.
Now the conundrum - with the light OFF there's 240V across the swtich.
Turn the light ON and the voltage vanishes.
Any clues?
cheers
