As sad as i am, i was reading where someone had a blown "fuse" on yahoo answers and was looking what to do, and had a bit of a laugh at one of the responses:

" You need to get an qualified electrician out as soon as possible, because he will have to do an insulation resistance test on the light circuit to find the problem. I had a problem like that at a clients house and found that rats chewed through the wiring. It caused a joist to catch fire, but lucky for the client the wires burnt off before causing big damage.
I don't know why rats like to chew electric cables, but they seem to like doing it. If the electrician can find the problem it should not cost to much, to repair, because he can cut the bad or damaged section of the cable out and use junction boxes to join a new part of cable. Just make sure to get a Part P registered electrician to do the work, because it's illegal to do any electrical work without being registered. Get a receipt when he did the work. "
 
Yahoo os no good anyway always use google my self haha.
Since when was it illegal to do that work as it is not instaling a new circuit so it is not notifiable so they dont have to be part p registered haha but o well
