Hi bit of advise needed please:
I installed 3 security lights with pirs onto an existing lighting circuit, swoped the 6amp mcb for a 10amp, there is only 7 lights on the circuit max demand 630 watts it is only using 320 watts so at its max it is only using 9 amps.
It all works fine for a few hours and then the 10 amp mcb type 2 trips, swoped the mcb still getting the same fault.
The consumer unit is in water proof box on the side of the house its bone dry inside no damp.
This fault only started after the lights were fitted.
I can only think i will have to intall the security lights on its on circuit?
Any help would be greatfull!!!!
