Help wires for outside lights Discussion ThreadHelp wires for outside lights Electrical Advice
Hi I have a small problem had new windows fitted to my porch and the guys that fitted them took down my old lights and left the wires out ready for me to put new ones up only when I did put the new ones up they didn’t work only to find out that they have removed 2 of the wires from the switch but they did mark them as outside light wires but am still waiting for them to call back but that was 6 months ago
So I opened the light switch to find 2 single red wires with tape on but don’t know which connection to put them in as in the photo
Top row says L1 L2 Common
Bottom row says Common L1 L2
Do I need to call an electrician out or is this something I can do thanks
Any help with this would be much appreciated
