I have 1w LEDs in the hall and landing connected via two way switches. The switches are connected via a three core plus cpc flat cable.

When I switch off the light, the LEDs show a little glow all the time. Any ideas?
 
this is very common, normally if you use an energy efficient light bulb, its cause through inductance from the feed to the switch wire.

so i assume its the same thing happening with the led's,


ps it doesnt happen with the gls lamp
