[QUOTE="Fleeting, post: 513672, member: 33702"] I suspect you have Type B 6A protective devices fitted which are prone to tripping when incandescent lamps fail. When these lamps were still common I always fitted Type C devices as this often solves the problem. As for the separate circuit issue, as already mentioned it is almost certainly a shared neutral between the circuits on the two way stairs lighting which isn't a tripping issue in the absence of rcds but obviously is now. It can be an easy fix if new cables can be pulled down existing cable routes but if not then you are looking at cosmetic damage. [/QUOTE]
