[QUOTE="Pipps, post: 485735, member: 31694"] The second landing ceiling light was connected like this: [IMG]https://talk.electricianforum.co.uk/uploads/imageproxy/Cw8ulrv.jpg.7ad960b735cd9498c29a4075a593e2e0.jpg[/IMG] Both were operated at the same time of two separate wall switches. I initially followed @ProDave advice (being the easiest to follow!) and exactly as Doc H predicted, one light could switch but the other was on permanently. I then connected one of the lives to the same connection terminal as the switching live. It is now working perfectly as required, wired like this: [IMG]https://talk.electricianforum.co.uk/uploads/imageproxy/zmSZgFn.jpg.a9e49d17bf6bd5f2dd7986d1bf31dda6.jpg[/IMG] Thank you everyone for the great help! 😁 [/QUOTE]
