Loop-in wiring and Ikea lights (safe?)
I recently purchased a number of lights from Ikea which I'm trying to
wire up. My electrical system is loop-in, and I'm wondering whether I've done the job correctly (it all seems to work), and more importantly, safely. Here's what I've done: Three red wires (live): connected to each other via a connector block Two black wires (neutral): connected to N Black/red wire (switched live): connected to L Yellow/green wire (earth): connected to earth I suspect the connector block doesn't meet electrical code, but is it safe? I don't want to burn my house down! Thanks in advance for any help offered! |
