Remove "australia" tag
Aug 15, 2012 at 15:49 comment added Piotr Kula @ChrisCudmore Yes, that is why it is more likely to be connected with A; but we cannot be sure of that.

Aug 15, 2012 at 15:47 comment added Chris Cudmore A is Active (HOT) and N is Neutral. Loop is for continuing on to another light in the sequence.

Aug 15, 2012 at 15:44 comment added Piotr Kula And you forgot to check how it was connected to the old lamp.. oops :) Loop can either mean it needs to be connected to A because it goes to another loop switch or connected to N because it acts like ground loop. You need a multimeter to verify where the cable goes. We cannot answer that question with certainty.
