I have just fitted a halogen light in my dining room, this is on the same circuit as my kitchen lights which are also halogens. Total load on the circuit is 500w. When I switch the dining room light on it works but if you switch it off and on it eventually trips the switch in the fuse box (sometimes this happens first time and sometimes it takes a few on/offs). If I reset the switch in the fuse box the light goes on and only trips out again when I switch the light off and then on at the wall.
When I had previous light in the dining room there was no prob with the wall switch - so I am assuming this is all fine.
The dining room light is earthed and I have double checked that the earth contact is good.
Can't understand, any suggestions greatly appreciated.
