Lights

[shagg]

Hi Guys

I'v been asked to change some light fitting at my m8 shop. He's already got 5x 5ft Fluorescent and he's having a serpended ceiling put in place. would you guys say it is ok to change them for Modular light fittings without changing the phase angle, as there is only five.

Are you asking if it's alright to have the lights on the same phase?

If so I'd say yes, as long as theres no rotating machinery in the shop.

You will find most fuorescent fittings have a capacitor fitted across the live and neutral for this reason.
