Intermediate Switch Lighting removal

lardarse

Hi All,

Wonder if i can get some advice.
I have a hall circuit light controlled by 3 switches. I would like to remove one of the switches thats an intermediate. I understand there are live circuit there and i can`t just cover it and i need to use a blanking plate, so anyone else knows there is a live circuit in the wall.

So my question is i have two cables running coming into this box. All wires are brown. 1st cable goes to L1 and L2 and then the second cable goes into L3 and L4. So can i get a terminal block and connect L1 to L3 and L2 to L4. This i believe would complete the circuit and then act just like a two swicth circuit. But thought i better ask first

Thanks in advance Andy
