[QUOTE="Kieren991, post: 448413, member: 29180"] Thanks for the replies. We can deffo rule out a borrowed neutral as its a brand new install... both up and down lights are on separate RCD's, first thing I suspected was that one of the neutrals was on a the wrong bar but double and triple checked that and they are deffinetly on the corresponding bars. its just a smiple case of the downstairs corridor and upstairs landings are 2 wayed. 2 strappers running in between and thats it nothing more nothing less. Evans electric when you say 'two different circuits' what do you mean by that exactly? The up and down are seperate yes but they are technically linked by these strappers as obviously you will have voltage passing through the up and down light circuits when the switchs are in different position's thus giving you your 2 way capability.. just seems mental ive drawn it out followed it through in my head and the wiring cant be wrong. Madness. [/QUOTE]
