Help Please!
I have a flourescent fitting in a room and i have added standard light fitting into the same circuit which i would like to dim, the problem is when the dimmer is operated the flourecent in the same circuit starts flashing, and blows the starter. the lights share the same neutral and loop feeds to the switches, is the dimmer causing some type of back feed interfearance through the neutral, if so is there any way i could surpress this problem?
I hope i have been clear enough just to make it clear i am not trying to dim the flourescent just a new light using the same feed and neutral and of course a different switch.
Thanks
Mark
