I need some help to wire up a new light fixture
I took down my old light fixture and I have never seen anything like it
3 red wires- All connected to each other but nothing else
3 bares wires(all connected but nothing else)(these are the earth)
3 black wires- all connected at different points- I am assuming this is the wiring loop
THe new light fixture had a single adaptor for Live,Nuetral and earth so I connected all 3 red into a block and then into the new light, same with the earth
Now I cannot figure how to configure the black wires - I have ascertained which is the main live wire- I connected it individually to the light and once I turned the fusebox back on the light was on constantly
However witht he 2 other wires I am unsure of how to integrate them to allow the switch to work
I have left all the black wires disconected and capped while I try to figure it out, however now half of my upstairs lights dont work
Can anyone guide me on how to install these correctly?
