[QUOTE="Jamess1994, post: 466046, member: 30334"] Hey everyone, So basically a while back i installed a garage supply for a friend and put sockets and lighting in for him, and very recently he wanted outdoor lights in his garden. So what i did was i cut the 6mm cable going to the garage and re-terminated and put in a junction box and spured off that with 13A Rcd fuse spur (this was the easiest way to get power) from the 13A fuse spur i connected one floodlight on a PIR which is under the porch and then 2 other lights on a switch in the garden. But the problem i have is the floodlight on the porch will randomly just stay on and wont go off. (When i reset it, 10 secs off and back on it works). But my friend said soon as they turn on their tumble dryer on the garage the light comes on and stays on? Any ideas? [/QUOTE]
