ceiling rose

Hi, i have bought a led light that has a 3 wire clip that I want to install into the ceiling however I am unsure how to rewire the rose for this? The light clip in the pic is currently connected to a plug as this was my original plan until the wife started she didn't want the wires going along...

I recently replaced an old dodgy light with a newer basic pendant light. Old one: New one: However the wires coming from the ceiling are quite short (they passed the tug test as they are now, and I did loop the light wires properly before screwing the cap on). It doesn't look like there...

Hello, Trying to change an older ceiling rose into a new light fitting, which only has a 2 cable attachment. I realise it doesn't need earthing, but there is an additional wire, blue with red casing around it. Not sure what I'm meant to do with that? Also assume it's ok to fit the 3 live and 3...

Pictures show hallway light ceiling rose operates from one switch. Why there is 2 blue cable on both picture?

Hello I've got a ceiling rose with 8 wires, 6 of which are being fed into it from the house. I've swapped some of these out to other light fittings myself in my own home, but only where there have been 3 wires (1 earth, neutral and live) so it was a pretty simple job. This one is in my...

Hi All, looking to change 1 ceiling rose in the bathroom to 4 Downlights. See photos. There is only 1 twin and earth cable coming into the light. in which case will the red be switched live? Or black. The downlight is just twin, so is it a case of red in L , black in N , wago the earth and...

I am trying to replace my light fittings in a new build - most have been very straightforward, one live, one neutral, one earth to be terminated. Then I got to my hall light, which seems to have 3 neutral, one live and 3 earth.. and I'm looking to move to a metal fitting with space for 1...

Hi. I have 4 wires coming out of my ceiling rose. I’ve determined that the wires coming down are: Black = switch live green and yellow = earth Blue = neutral I’m just wondering why I have a spare brown wire capped off into the connector block which goes nowhere? is this wired correctly?

I’m looking for help removing this ceiling rose and wiring it to an led light with only a brown and blue cable. looking at the image I’ve attached I assume the grey wire with brown sleeve is my switched neutral and I’ve identified which live comes from the same circuit. I’ve connected the 3...

I have a new ceiling rose with two ports - blue and brown. The wires from my ceiling are black, red (several reds twisted together), green, and a black with a brown sleeve. We cannot seem to get the light fitted. The bulb will light up but the wall switch won't turn it off - it stays on...

Hi, New to all of this. Just moved into a house that the living room has no ceiling light so using lamps currenly (in winter where it gets dark from 4pm) the ceiling light has red, blue, white wires. The wall switch also has red, blue, white wires. I connected the ceiling rose to the exposed...

So I was a hero and removed the ceiling rose without taking a picture or noting there's a thing called live switch which is denoted by a black thing on red wire. Unfortunately my wiring is all reds and black. So I don't have a clue which one it is. Now the light works but bedroom 2 and...

Fitting ceiling light which sits flush to the plaster so existing ceiling rose needs to come off in order to attach. Light fixture has space for two live and two neutral, however, ceiling rose looks like this (see photo). Can anyone recommend the safest and most effective approach, covering...

Hi, I’m currently doing a complete makeover on my house, the house has been neglected for about 15 years and has felt as though time has stood still as it was my mums and dads house, unfortunately my mum passed away 13 years ago and dad was no longer motivated to look after it. I’ve already...

I had a bulb blow in my ceiling lamp with 3 spotligths which tripped out the rcd. I changed the bulb reset the trip switch and the light was dead. Next I changed the light fitting and the light switch (both new) and still nothing. I have tested for power at the switch and the ceiling block...

Hi all, (firstly I am a home DIYer FYI ;)) I am replacing a ceiling rose type fitting in the garage with a 6ft twin fluorescent fitting and I have a query on best practice for replacing the wire connections from the original inner of old light. It is connected to x2 switches either end of the...

Hi, I am replacing pendant lights with tracks that fit flush to the ceiling, so the existing rose (with loop-in connections) needs replacing with something recessed. There's no access from above. Best bet so far could be a circular dry-lining box that can house a 4-way choc-block (such as...
