[QUOTE="Ardet R, post: 473806, member: 30040"] It would not be straightforward to just change the switches because the incoming power supply and the outgoing switched line join the wiring at a separate point (probably at a light fitting). Though the brown and blue in the connector block at the ground floor looks like something was changed in the past. From the switches you effectively have the below diagram, which does not involve a supply or the light fittings. There would have to be a practical investigation undertaken to find out where line and switched line come from and go to in relation to each of the light fittings to find out if it is possible to make that change.
