Hi Folks,
I had a job today for a faulty downlight. It was a 12v with a 50w lamp run through a transformer rated up to 60w, there were only two lights runs off a one way switch, the other light worked fine and the light in question had been working fine previously. I tested for supply and got 230v going into the transformer, nothing coming out. Simple, I thought to myself, new transformer and all is well. After trying 3 brand new transformers I was still getting nothing coming out the other side. I rigged up a pendant to the 230v supply to see if the lamp did anything odd but it worked fine. Has anyone come across anything similar? I can replace the 12v with a 230v fitting but this seems to be skirting the issue!! Any help would be much appreciated!!!
