Lights dim
Reply with quote Thanks

When I put a light on in my house every 6 7 minutes they seem to dim very slightly. It doesn't matter what I have switched on with them they always seem to do it. I have tried switching things off from the consumer unit to see if they are draining the electricity but this doesn't seem to make a difference. I have also plugged a lamp into a socket and this also does it. Any ideas.

apart from your SHOUTING stating the same fact (that your lights dim) twice with no other information is not very helpfull.
