Dipping lights
Reply with quote Thanks

I have recently had my house rewired with the addition of extra sockets, and a 10.5k shower. an up todate consumer unit was also installed..but I find when I switch on the shower and items the lights dip on the surge of power. Does this mean I have a fault system. The main cartridge fuse is 80amp is that sufficient for an average 3 bed room house?
