I thought my light died in the groundfloor bathroom. New bulb didn't work so thought the fitting was dead.
I decided to take the opportunity to replace with an LED light but that won't work.
I had a pull switch, 240v bc light fitting and extractor fan.
The voltage across the switch live and neutral measures just 7.6 volts?
The switch measures 18.7 volts and the fan 3.4v?
I'm confused. What happened to my 230/240v feed?
Other lights on the ring are fine. All i did was take the new light and swap the cable like-for-like, switched live, neutral and earth? But whatever went wrong, went wrong before I changed the fitting.
There are 3 1.5mm cables at the rose, one from the ring, one to the switch and the other must be to the fan.
Any ideas gratefully accepted!
