Thanks for the reply. The pressure gauge is at 0.9 bar when cold and rises gradually to 1.6 when running. By the time it gets to 1.6 the rads etc are warm enough and i switch it of. The guage has a red needle preset at 1.2 which i presumed was the max safety level. Could it be a coincidence that the...

3 lights into two x 3 gang switches

Sparx Thanks for advice, now that i`ve got three x 3 core + E cables running from switch to switch backbox`s i`m unsure about where to run the third light switch cable to. Do I run it into either of the switches? This seems logical but this will mean 18 wires in total (inc earth wires) into one of t...

Wiring for 2 lights & 2 x 2 gang switches

Thanks for the reply Sparx.
I`ve got the gist of what to do thanks, but please confirm that when completed I will have a total of 8 cores and 3 earth wires in each switch box, this would need a deep wall box, what size would you recommend?
I`ll let you know how I get on.
Thanks
Mike

wiring for 2 lights and 2 x two way/gang switches

Hi
I`ve knocked two bedrooms into one and i'm looking for guidance on how to wire up the two original lights to two double switches (one at each end of the room) so each light can be switched on/off from either switch.
Any advice welcomed.
Thanks
Mike :?
