Hello
Recently installed a Low Voltage wire track lighting system in the kitchen which uses a ceiling mounted Arte 300 watt 12v toroidal transformer. Running 5 Osram 50W 12v halogens. The hager 6A Type B, MCB trips frequently (not every time) so I guess it is simply a in surge current issue and changing to a Type C will be OK.
you think this is the culprit?
I have ordered a Hager Type C based on what I have read on other posts to try. Is it a simple job to switch off the mains to the consumer unit and change the MCB for a competent DIY'er or is it time to call in the sparky!?
Thanks
