I'm in Australia - and I know I'm meant to get a sparky - well might yet! I have worked with subbies before and know the usual precautions to take!
I'm installing new lights and have struck 2 problems: the original fixtures have 4 teminals, and the new terminals are smaller than will fit the existing wiring. The original wiring is for two way switching, and has a single red wire joined to the active wires, and another red wire (sheathed with a black) into the 4th terminal of the fixture. Does the 4th terminal have a function?
Is it worth somehow reorganising these wires into a junction box in the ceiling to allow single wires to go to the new smaller terminals?
