Dear Electrical Geniuses, please help me if you can.
The problem started when the LV lights in the bathroom randomly went off and then came back on when they felt like it. I read that they might be overheating and as we had our loft reinsulated not that long ago thought that might be the reason, it isn't.
Someone told me that it was the transformer, so I have changed that and that does not make any difference, in fact now, since I have got involved, the lights are permanently off.
I bought a voltmeter and at the switch in the bathroom there appears to be 142V. The feed to the transformer is showing 247V, however the feed out of the transformer to the lights' junction box is showing 0V.
I suspect I am doing something very silly (e.g. trying to do electrics) but would be grateful for any pointers please.
Thanks
Rob
