Cheers for all the advise lads. Electrician coming tomorrow to replace cable with a longer length. He says the simple answers are always the best.

No transformer. It just plugs straight into 13amp socket.

Cheers for that crafty. What cable do I require, and can it be buried without conduit?

I have a water feature that plugs into 13amp socket, but the cable is only 2 metres in length, I want to put the Feature further away from the socket and also bury the cable under the lawn. What cable do I need, and does it have to be in conduit?

Cheers for that info. I will challenge Wickes first and let you know how I get on>

The transformer for this one will also take a maximum lamp wattage of 20W. The lamp type that came in the kit is Low Voltage Halogen, GX5.3 Supply Voltage - Lamp 12V - 50Hz Rated Power - Lamp 20W maximum IPRating IP 24 Max Ambient Temp...

Was yours from Wickes?

Very similar. Wickes' own brand.

I would be grateful if you could find out more information from your dad regarding where & how much? It sounds to me like he has the answer.

Thanks for that Bernard. I will mention that to the electrician when he calls me back.

They are ART Electronics Lighting Co, and the reason for not changing the brand is because it came in the kit from Wickes. Wickes have opened other kits to exchange the transformer, but the result is the same each time, works for a short while then blows.

:?: I have a problem with the shower light transformer. It has been connected as per the diagram, ie N and S/L, but after operating two or three times OK the Light transformer blows. Everything else still works fine. The Fan works OK, the timer etc, but not the 12V light? I have exchanged this...
