Hi all,
I had a mate call today with his downstairs lights out, the MCB had not tripped. I assumed a loose connection so did not take test gear just continuity tester.
The circuit is double banked with the upstairs lights and they are fine... It's all 3plate so i checked a few pendants... This is happening at all pendants on this circuit.
*feed is live
*when the swith is made the neutral and switch live is also showing 230v to earth.
*the breaker is still not operating when this happens
I'm stumped, am i missing something obvious? The lights are all straightforward pendants with either gls or cfl's and a handfull of gu10s. No work has been going on in the house they just stopped working one day...
Please help! I'm going back tomorrow with the test gear and will just do a full test on that circuit if i can't think of anything else to do.
Cheers all...
