I've got a 2-gang switch in the wall. It's connected to a cable in a ceiling, that contains 4 cables: black, brown, blue and yellow-green (not included in schema).
Expected result:
- Left part of switch turns on left lamp.
- Right part of switch turns on right lamps.
I'm not sure if my schema is correct. Could anyone take a look and validate, please?
EDIT:
Thank you gentlemen for your input so far.
I need to clarify some things. I'm from Poland, so colors are standarized for Europe:
- blue – neutral
- green-yellow – protective conductor
- brown – hot
- black – hot
Here you have a switch. Two buttons:
- left (black hot cable) – turns on/off left bulb.
- right (brown hot cable) – turns on/off two right bulbs.
Schema:
This is a cable from the ceiling. Colors are I already mentioned above.
Will it work as I expect?
Best Answer
If the only cable at the switch is brown-black-blue then blue is not a neutral.
Brown should be live (hot) to the switch; blue and black should be switched lives and should both be over-sleeved brown.
At some point you have to provide a neutral to the lights, as neutral is not run through the switch.
