Hello all,
I was hoping someone might be able to help me with a halogen downlights issue.
I have recently had cause to move a 2-gang light switch. One switch powers the outside security light, the other switch powers 3 x 50W halogen downlights. This is the only switch on a dedicated 6B MCB.
Because of the re-positioning of the switch, the security light cable was too short, so I replaced it like-for-like with 1.5 mm cable, and replaced the security light itself with a 120W unit (halogen bulb).
The problem now is that, when the PIR activates the security light, the downlights all flicker briefly. Any idea as to what might cause this?
Thanks
Trev
