Can you do a diagram of how youve wired them? if not I'd have to come round and have a look at £30 per hour......sorry but nothing like this ever happenes to me cos Im perfect.

This is exactly the reason why pre-testing is so important and should be as important a job as making sure the kettle is boiled before you kill the power. test test and test again

Let us know what the fault is.

I will be nice, all I ask of you is that you do not take offence to any comments! Take it as tea break banter,

and you will be a winner

No borrowed neutral all lighting is segregated to individual circuits Everything works fine other than under unit lights

it's possible that the L feed to these under cupboard lights comes from another circuit. rather a borrowed L than a borrowed N.

Tenner says its a borrowed neutral , you say that there is a link at the 2 gang kitchen switch , as already mentioned the neutral has got to be from another circuit fed from the other RCD, most likely the kitchen sockets .

Where are the under unit lights switched from? I had a similar problem once . They picked the live from the kitchen switch and a neutral from a kitchen socket.

There is an uncanny resemblance to these posts :cheesy:

thinking even further in front / I like it
But make sure you have a lighter or matches in case it is an electric ignitor

Good advice then you will see your spelling mistakes

Hey little bit of advise, type your post up in word, then go away for 10 mins or so, then come back and read it, edit it then post it.
