If there were one less red (live),one less black (neutral) and one less yellow/green (earth), this would indicate that this is the end of the loop. If the fitting has an earth core, it must be sleeved with a yellow and green coat and connected to the Earth terminal.ģ Wiring for two lights on one light switchģA - This wiring arrangement would indicate the presence of two lights in a room on the same light switch. If the light fitting you have purchased has two cores - live (brown) and neutral (blue) connect the live to the switch live terminal and neutral to the neutral terminal. If you have to disconnect and remove the cores from the ceiling rose reconnect them as shown in 2B. It has one less live, one less neutral and one less earth core because the loop-in has reached the end and doesn't need to pass power on to another ceiling rose. Important: Where Earth cores are present, they must ALL be connected together in the same terminal.ĢA - This wiring arrangement would indicate that this is an end of the loop light fitting. If the fitting has an earth core, it must be sleeved with a yellow and green coat and connected to the Earth terminal. If the light fitting you have purchased has just two cores - live (brown) and neutral (blue), connect the live to the switch live terminal and neutral to the neutral terminal. If you have to disconnect and remove the cores from the ceiling rose reconnect them as shown in 1B. The latter cable is referred to as the switch live (S/L) provides electric to the light when the switch is turned on.
It shows three cables one cable (L+N+E) either from the mains board or the last ceiling rose, one cable (L+N+E) out to the next ceiling rose, and one cable (L+S/L +E) that goes to the wall or pull switch within that room. Wiring for two lights on one light switchġA - This is the most common loop-in wiring arrangement you are likely to see.Unlike radial lighting wiring, loop-in wiring is more complicated at the ceiling rose: Note that the colours shown connected to the ceiling rose are the old standard - red, black and yellow and green, the modern standard being brown, blue and yellow and green (the yellow and green being the earth connector which is typically uninsulated but fitted with a yellow and green sleeving.) This page shows the various wirings found at a ceiling rose of an installation using loop-in lighting wiring. Generally it uses less materials and is quicker to install than radial (junction box) wiring - it can however, be a bit more complicated to work out the actual wires at a ceiling rose.
Loop-in lighting wiring is the modern cabling arrangements used in most installation.
