[QUOTE="Traineeboy, post: 498525, member: 32807"] thanks to all who take the time to reply. Another thing I just want to clarify. If say you have 15 led downlights on one circuit and they are equivalent to 50w a light. So 750W divide by 230 = 3.2 A But the 6A circuit breaker keeps tripping am I right in thinking as long as there isn’t a fault then it’s due to inrush current. This can then be rectified by fitting a type C MCB rather than a type B ? [/QUOTE]
