I drilled through a wire above a light switch by mistake. Hatched out cabling, and capped off, last new years eve! Now, cant find diagram i did, of wiring, where it feeds to switch. It is complex in that, its the kitchen light, AND (adjoining) backroom light in one double switch, Each room, ALSO with thier own single switch. So there is at least one common wire, and a jumper, (already on the switch). I have TWO "twin and earth" (earth not used [cut back]) cables for the two lights, AND TWO single cables, one RED, one GREEN (earth? [or second "commom"]?) So two single cables, and two twin and earth ring cables. How do i attatch to switch? NOTE the jumper attatched previously. And this old wiring, does green neccessarily mean earth? See pictures here:
