light switch wiring

onthelook

Hi, very confused, tried many forums and can't figure it out.


So I have a light switch and want to replace it. (2 switches for 2 lights)



The current one is wired -



Cable to A
Cable to A1

Cable to B1
Cable to B


and A1 and B are connected by separate cable.


The new plug has N (in) L (in) L2 (out) L1 (out)


Any one knows how to replace it?


Thanks

I'm very confused too. It sounds like you are trying to replace a light switch with an immersion switch or something similar.
Why do you need to replace the switch? Is it faulty?

Picture would explain it better

That's a spur or double pole switch you bought not a light switch.

So as you can see the current switch has wire going to A and B1 on top

and on the bottom wire going to A1 and B at the far end

ALso A1 and B are connected.


The new switch I got is wifi controlled smart switch

It won't work.

You need the wiring altered by an Electrician.

Smart switch needs a neutral so it wont work with your set up
