Electrical Query And Ceiling Light/fan Units
2 Answers
Hi there.
I have query regarding a problem with 2 of 5 ceiling light/fan units in my house. Some are 3 dropped lights while some are a larger single light unit. In one of each type I have a problem of them repeatedly blowing bulbs.
The 3 drop just blows and is always the same bulb. The single one blows and quite often trips the light fuse at the RCD.
Can I assume a fault is in the fittings or is it more likely in the wiring? both have the screw bulb fitting (SES)
This has been happening regularly since I bought the house 2007. I had a problem with the earth and cross bonding so had new DCU & RCDs fitted 2010 with a check. All seemed OK And he didnt report any apparent wiring concerns.
Any thoughts by any of you bright sparks out there??
Thanks
