Hello everyone,
I have done some research, but unfortunately not all of my questions were answered or could be answered.
In some places, I have several colorful wires hanging from the wall or ceiling, and I am wondering what they are all for and how I can connect a lamp to them.
What I know so far:
blue to blue
brown to brown
green/yellow to green/yellow (if the lamp is not metal, this connection can be omitted)
That’s my current understanding... I know, it's pretty minimal.
I have attached two pictures, one from the bathroom and one from the hallway. I am really unsure here—maybe you can tell me how to connect all these colorful wires to the lamp, and why are there two blue, two brown, and two yellow wires in the hallway? Is it for connecting two lamps?

if your post is serious, meaning you’re not Paul Panzer, I’m really shocked.
