Hi all. Hoping to get some advice.
I have received a chandelier consisting of five lights. I have to assemble the fitting however there are five exposed pairs of live and neutral wires that are to be connected to individual live and neutral wires that will ultimately connect to the house.

Hello
Right I cannot get my head around this one.
I have a 3 lamp chandelier - I have done a drawing of the connections below.
It has been placed on the 1st floor 5amp lighting main in the existing ceiling rosette (which previously had a 80 watt filament bulb.)
I bought a LED dimmer switch...
Just had someone on the phone asking how much would I charge to put up a chandelier.
I honestly have no clue, what would you guys generally charge for something like this?
When unable to carry out a Zs test on a lighting circuit (large/heavy chandelier type lighting), then the R1+R2 + Ze measurements are instead used and this is noted, but is it the norm to still write this value in the Zs box on the schedule of test results or just in the notes. I ask because...

My electrician is currently working at my home doing some general rewiring in an extension room. I had asked to also rewire two brass wall lights and a brass chandelier. They are old pices of equipment from 1970 and they have been in store here for eight years. He found that one of the wall...
Dear All,
This is my first post in the forums - so a little background first. I have basically no practical electrical experience but I have almost completed the 'Domestic Electrical Installers' course through OLCI (I have my Part P). I know a lot of you fully qualified guys don't like this...
Hi everybody
Every time I went to my grandparents their chandelier had around 4 out of the 10 bulbs that had blown, this would happen after a couple of weeks of being replaced and it would alternate between the 10 sockets. It is on a 10amp type b breaker and there has been no issue with this...
Anyone know of a good place to source them, I have done a google search which seems to bring up the same manufacturer but with the prices start at a shade under £500 so really just wanted to find it a bit cheaper if pos. Chandelier weight is under 20kg. Thanks :drunk:

Anyone got any ideas about this? I've got a chandelier which has 8 bulbs. Apparently, every month or so, the customer has to replace all the bulbs, and they are all blowing at the same time. It's probably blindingly simple but I can't het my head around it....
I've been asked to replace a standard overhead ceiling lamp with an old chandelier. It weighs about 8kg so think I will be OK hanging it from a noggin attached to joists. It only has 2 lamp holders (brass bayonet with earth screw) but the wiring looks pretty tired so I said I would only fit it...
Don’t know what’s happening right now but I’m getting all weird and wonderful enquiries
The latest being a chandelier, the mother of all chandeliers as far as I’m concerned.
Rewire and install
100 lamps, split over 7 tiers, was 60w per lamp and they want the same. Most of the wiring is burnt...
Been asked to hang a very expensive 13 stone chandelier. Not a field we specialize in but can't imagine it will be that difficult. Is there any specific equipment that is out there that should be used like a winch above the ceiling or shall i just use a couple of rawl plugs? (was thinking...
Hi Guys,
I am a complete newbie to this forum. I am a 23 year old female who was silly enough to buy a chandelier in the sale and now i'm not sure if I am able to attach it...
