    Garage consumer unit rcd trips out

    Never said or implying any thing about your example of bad wiring . I am talking about my garage lighting issue. I am saying it could be possible that the electrician who wired my garage consumer unit up could of miss wired two of the cables for the light circuit, hence this is the result. But...

    Garage consumer unit rcd trips out

    Garage consumer unit rcd trips out

    It is something to do with a two way switching circuit and these flourecents with this rcd. Carnt be any thing else. Light pendants work on this two way circuit. Two flourecent dont. Took flourecents from another part of ceiling of garage and made no difference. Still trips rcd

    Garage consumer unit rcd trips out

    Well swapped flourecent over to what i know are good units Still the same result . Rcd trips whilst switching one of the units off. This now narrows it down for and confirms the following : The flourecents units work fine as taken them from a different circuit . The switches are fine as i have...

    Garage consumer unit rcd trips out

    before i replace what i believe to be the failing flourecents causing the rcd to trip i am going to swap around two of the four lights that are working to the circuit with the suspect flourecents on . if they work on this circuit i will know they are faulty and will replace with led versions...

    LED 6FEET GARAGE LIGHT BATTENS

    Very true. Wont be in there all the time so doubt running costs i notice a great deal of increase. I could always opt for five feet double versions. But agree with you 1000 + lumens is bright so will only need two of them and change the rest to single units or five feet doubles led versions as...

    LED 6FEET GARAGE LIGHT BATTENS

    Think my plan will be since i have 6 6 feet single flourecent in the garage each consuming 70 watts of electric to give out 6300 lumens but doubt now as tubes etc will age to go with equivalent led version which i think will be the jcc type. Not sure if i should fit two double versions of them...

    Had a look at those jcc versions. Like the design and quality look of them. Are they just a straight forward swap over from what i have in terms of cable entry and ceiling mounting points. The ones i have at the minute are crampton plb61t units. They look very similar on there diagrams...
