Agree with what you say Andy but with all the electrics/electronic stuff that there is nowadays, do you not think that this problem would have been discussed in the design stage? By the way I work in street lighting and the requests sometimes that I receive are really bizarrre
Ah think we should all go to the pub and discuss this topic lads as my wife disnae like it when I talk work when we're invited to somebody's hoose. It would be great to talk about our 'metier' all night in the partaking of a few beers, no?
Yeh I see where you are coming from Marvo, thanks a lot for that idea. I will look into it in more detail tomorrow at work. As I said I'm trying to do it for the least amount possible as it's for the village and this idea seems the most feasible. Cheers.

Hi Marky thanks a lot for replying to my question. Today I went to see this fault and after a little bit of time I discovered what the problem was. At the pillar(d.b.) just at the service head cut out someone had taken a supply to feed another pillar which in turn fed 20mph school flashing...
