Hi, Can someone point me in the right direction, I am having a kitchen ceiling plastered and whilst preparing for this I am fitting 3 mains halogens, on preparing the lighting today I switched the lightings circuit off via the consumer unit lighting fuse, I then disconnected the rose and then replaced the wiring into a junction box, the wires from the existing light were red/earth + black/earth the light is operated by two switches. I then connected two 1.5mm cables from the junction box one to feed a single halogen and the other to feed two halogens (linked from light to light), as the ceiling will be plastered I fitted normal pendants for now until job is done, anyway back to problem new wires were connected black to black, red to red and green to green, first pendant fitted and bulb put in, on doing the second pendant the wire was still continous but hanging down from the ceiling I then cut this wire in half, this is where my problem started the consumer unit tripped on the ON / OFF switch ? the wire was not live ? I switched power back on and wired the next pendant and the power tripped again but would not reset, I removed the first bulb and it then reset I then wired the next pendant and fitted three 100w bulbs and restored the power back to the lighting circuit, lights tried and all worked okay, carried on with jobs in the kitchen 3-4 hrs later tidying up lights went out, mcb had tripped in consumer unit all other mcbs were still in, reset mcb and lights back on again, what do I need to check to see what is causing lights to trip, ultimately will be fitting 3 50w halogens.
