Should I double up or split apart the wires when replacing the second light in my mum’s kitchen with two main cables?

I’m attempting to replace the light in my mom’s kitchen, and this is what the second light looked like when I removed it. Should I connect the wires together or separate them? The first light only had one main cable, but this one has two. It’s really confusing me, so any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Didn’t someone post this yesterday?
😁
Are there 2 or more lights connected to the same switch?

How was it connected before you dismantled it?
Try using a multimeter to see which pair is active when the switch is toggled.
‘t try to fix it yourself, hire an electrician to avoid any accidents.
How many times do we have to see this posted?
Connect both brown wires to the live wire, both blue wires to the neutral wire, and both green and yellow wires to the earth wire.
Unless a blue wire was being used as a switch live.
I only see wires without any light. This post is not very helpful.
Getting free electricity, the meter can’t detect the load on the cpc 😉
😂😂😂 I guess that’s a short circuit
Someone else posted this yesterday. It’s just to get your attention.

Here we go again.
Are you joking or being serious?
Pagliaro nice job spotting the hacker scammers
Simply twist the wires together and use a large wire nut, and you’ll be all set.
Pagliaro doesn’t need a light bulb
🤣🤣🤣
Put the brown in your mouth. Take a deep breath and flip the switch. And if it doesn’t work, reach out to someone who knows what they’re doing.

When you connect the brown and green+yellow wires, you’ll have a continuous flow of electricity 👌👌
We definitely wouldn’t do that
Join the two brown wires together, the two blue wires together, and the green and yellow earth wires together. Then connect the new lamp, and it should work.
Which box are you referring to? Differentiate between the neutral and hot wires.

Is anyone monitoring this page?
Match blue with blue and brown with brown.
Looks like another spam post making the rounds.
Just call a certified electrician and have them fix your mistakes for a fee.
I thought this page was supposed to be for electricians.
Hey Joe, it might be a good idea to take a picture of the spices before taking them apart, instead of guessing.
There are too many troublemakers in this group
Keep the loop going
It’s probably best to set the tools aside, step back, and get in touch with an electrician.
I only see wires, no light. Silly post.
Call a professional electrician.
