Hi all,
I am hoping you can provide me with some insight. I've just bought a new light fitting, and before fitting I attempted to turn the downstairs lights off at the CU. It killed all lights bar the kitchen light (the one I was planning to change ). However, to stop power to the the kitchen light, I have to trip the MCB for the upstairs plug sockets. The big rcd on the CU will trip everything including the rogue light as you'd expect.
I suppose my question is two fold;
1. Is this dangerous and should I not proceed with changing the fitting?
2. Is this common and is it easily remedied?
Really appreciate your time.
Many thanks,
