    When working on circuits do you isolate whole board or just the final circuits using MCBs ?

    When working on circuits do you isolate whole board or just the final circuits using MCBs ? Or is there any instances when the whole board has to be isolated even if you are working on few final circuits? Thanks.

    My bathroom light went last week. I believe it's a "2D" bulb - the full model number on the bulb is F28W2D/835. The bulb had gone black at one end, which I'm guessing is what happens when one of these blows? I've bought 4 different replacements this week, but none of them are working. One...
