L.E.Ds flicker

[stuartcourt]

Hi all I have put 30 or so gu10 SMD leds (not my choice) in a shop on 3 separate circuits. Now whenever you put on any kind of load through sockets eg hoover the all lights flicker, I have tried using other sockets but no change. I was thinking on lines of a loose neutral in consumer unit as all lights on all circuits flicker but all tight and well. I am back in morning and will do further investigating but have in my head cheap lamps, but any ideas would be appreciated cheers.

as you said, could be a number of things. try swapping 3 or 4 LEDs for ones you know are good . then look further if they flicker as well.
