ceiling light

Hello, I'm replacing an existing ceiling rose and replacing it with a new light fixture. when i unscrewed the rose I discovered it has 8 wires coming from the ceiling (pictured) - 3 brown, 3 blue and 2 yellow/green. my new fixture has 3 terminals for L, N and Earth. Do I just connect all 3...

I have recess lights in the ceiling and I need to replace a bulb. But I can't work out how to change it. It doesn't seem to twist out and I can't see how to dismantle the housing any further. How does this bulb come out?

Hi. I have a couple of LED ceiling lights which have two settings (daylight white and warm white) which alternate by switching them on/off quickly. My electrician fitted a new light switch while it was live and I'm pretty certain it has blown the LED light driver (pictures attached). I need to...

Hi all. I'm struggling to figure out how to replace the ceiling light. The bottom photo is a bit blurry but you can see how they're connected currently. The top photo (with brown and blue cables only) is the new light. I'd rather avoid the trial-and-error route, so thought I'd ask here. Should I...

Hi. Not sure if this has been posted before but can't find the answer. I took my old ceiling light down but like an idiot didn't take note of where the wires would fit into the new light. It has a dimmer so there are 2 sets of 3 wires in the hole in the ceiling, red, black and green. No rose...

I recently changed a couple of ceiling roses for a newer ones that weren't grubby and yellow. I noticed something odd... in the fact there was only 2 cables going to them. In previous houses I have lived at, there has always been 3. 2 which form part of the ring/circuit, and one goes to the...

Hi, my top plastic box doesn’t have a hole and I am struggling to fix this to ceiling. This keeps falling and won’t fix to the ceiling. Appreciate if someone could help. three pictures attached for reference. Thank you.

Hi, I've just moved into a new home and found that the living room has been left without a light fixture in the ceiling. We're on an extremely tight budget and I'd like to fit the pendant myself if possible, but the wiring in the ceiling has me baffled - I'm a newbie - as there appear to be...

Hi, As per title I need to remove a pendant and ceiling pull switch from a bedroom. What is the best way to go about this? No access from above.. See pic. Thanks in advance.

Hi all, I have just installed an antique brass bulkhead to the (artex) ceiling of our kitchen. I chased into the artex to get the wire from the original light to sit behind the bulkhead where it then enters the unit via the hole at the side. As it is a brass fixture it conducts a lot of heat...

Hi I just replaced a light shade in one of my bedrooms. Unfortunately I was a bit heavy handed removing the old light shade (the pendant cable twisted a couple of times). After replacing the light shade the light is no longer working! I tried the bulb in another room and it worked, confirming...
