Discuss Light switch sparking only when off in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

It looks like the floash is in front of the faceplate. there are shadows behind the faceplate. View attachment 53468looks like a camera flash.
I'll put my neck out and suggest "the Video" is more dramatic than real life.
(cameras lie --often)​

Did this all start happening when :-
a) the Lamp was changed
b) Lots of wires have been moved about and crammed with the existing lighting wiring.​
[ if a) see post #16 , if b) see post #10 ]
