Hey up, was doing some testing today and found 15V at some 5 amp lighting sockets even though they where switched off, after testing the hell out of the circuit I realise now this is induced voltage, I've come across this a few times in the past but only ever 1 or 2 V.
The circuit in...

Allo,
Problem ere.
I just installed a new light fitting and 4 spots.
