Hello,

Can someone please explain how to wire the following arrangement?: -

I have two ceiling lights, one at either end of a room. There is a switch at either end of the room also, each of which has 6 wires as follows: -

2 red
1 black
1 blue
1 yellow
1 yellow/green (earth) - wired to metal housing.

I have two 2-way 2-gang switches and want to be able to switch either light from either switch (if poss). The switches have L1, L2 and common terminals.

Any suggestions???

Navigate down to Multiway switching and check out switch arrangement number 2 - Not counting the Earth it has 5 wires - you have 5 wires.

Good Luck...
