Can anyone help? I recently moved the garden workshop and wanted to improve the lighting, I removed the old fluorscent(fed from a 5 amp supply off the consumer unit) and fitted some halogens. First the 5 amp fuse blew, and the main board circuit breakers tripped. I checked all connections and tried again, same!! changed the cabling, same!! Several trys later still the same. After running out of 5 amp fuse wire, I fitted 15 amp, now the fuse wire is OK at the consumer unit is OK but the main fuseboard circuit breaker still trips.
I put back the fluorescent, via the same wiring and switch no problem, I fitted a standard bulb, no problem. What is going on??
