Hi everybody,
Just hoping I can get a little electrical advice re wiring in my new kitchen.
My old kitchen had at least four, maybe six (can't remember for sure) old-fashioned 50w 240v spots over the cooking area, plus two over the eating area.
My new kitchen has ten 240v GU10 6w LEDs over the cooking area, plus four over the eating area.
All but one of the LEDs in the cooking area have gone in the six months since the new kitchen was finished. They're Aurora brand and have a two-year guarantee, so they were placed.
Now one of the replacement bulbs has gone too.
I thought Aurora had a reasonable name, which is why I got that brand. Now I'm starting to wonder if the problem isn't with the bulbs, but the wiring.
I wasn't happy with the standard of work of the electrician who did the job - tried to rush thru his work and generally like a bull at a gate.
I know b*all about domestic wiring, but I'm wondering if there's any way he could have messed the wiring up in a way which is causing these bulb failures?
And if he did, what would I do to discover this?
Any advice from you expert electricians out there much appreciated...
