Not sure how you managed that, unless you are fortunate to have a neutral
feed down to your switch - most (uk) domestic wiring doesnt, and you have
to go to the ceiling rose to get a neutral feed.

Based on the principle you have a live and neutral supply in the ceiling,
and a single T&E running down to the switch from the rose, its simple.
1. Disconnect power
2. Connect the LD11 live and neutral inputs to the permanent live ring.
3. Change the switch wiring from being between the live and the load (ie
the bulb) to being between the live and the LD11's switch input.
4. Wire the load between the LD11's output, and neutral.
5. Replace wall swith with momentary switch
6. Make sure all earths are connected etc
And you're done!
Obviously its easier if you have access to the roof space from above - I'm
fitting LD11's like this as I redecorate the upstairs rooms and have taken
the carpet up, giving me access to cut holes in the floorboards above the
downstairs light fittings.
