Light switch renewal
I am replacing all the old light switches around the house but have found a problem with a switch that is shared between the downstairs hall light and the upstairs landing light.
The hall light is controlled by the left hand switch, from the downstairs only, and the landing light is controlled by both the downstairs switch, on the right of the plate, and the one on the landing itself.
I have found the new switch to have a different terminal layout to the old one and really daren't risk using my imagination. If I got plumbing wrong I'd only get wet but I ain't going to risk my life with electrical experimentation.
Anyway, I'm sure the regular experts in the forum have the answer. Thanks for your help in anticipation.
