In this video we look at a lighting circuit using the 2 plate method and I explain the connections within a one gang 1 way switch. The 2 plate method takes the feed (supply) to the switch and is often used in installation that have lots of downlights fitted (LED) because it reduces the number of cables at the lighting points..

Why would this method be used instead of the other one you mentioned?

@o04n7h0n90o Ай бұрын

This is the more modern method and provides a neutral at the switch, which is handy for smart switches as most of these also require a neutral connection 😉

So where do the blue neutral wires go??

@johnadams1976 Ай бұрын

They have just been brought to the box as some modern smart switches require a neutral. Otherwise you'll find that they are simply connected together up in the ceiling rose etc. Heading off to the next light.

One cable (supply) coming from the breaker and the other (switching cable) going out to the light fixture. The switch only breaks the line (brown) conductor to turn off the light, the earths and neutrals are permanently connected.
