[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 506548, member: 250"] No.. You have got three cables.. (1) Live & Neutral supply coming from the Consumer Unit, (or previous switch/light) (2) Live & Neutral supply continuing on to the remaining switches/light in the circuit. {The above two browns are the ones in the L1 of your current switch. (3) Live & Neutral going to the specific light that the switch turns on. {The above single brown is the one in L2 of your current switch} All of the three blues MUST be kept together to maintain neutral continuity to the rest of the circuit. {They are NOT unused, just not required in the current switch itself} If you split then you will find that lights in other rooms stop working! [ All three earths are common together in the back-box earth stud ] As a side note:- The Meross wiring diagram shows the wrong colour for the Live out (Blue), Your switch has the correct colour (Brown) You need to add an extra Blue neutral strap from the existing three blues to the new switch neutral!
