Have you replaced the lamp to see it the issue goes away?
Discuss Shower on Ceiling Light Flickers - advice needed please in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net
Wonder what the ubiquitous Certificate will have to say on the state of the insatllation, BS, I suspect.I have often seen flickering of lighting when wired up with a fan. As per the comments above I suspect the fan causing the flickering and the method of wiring sounds very wrong especially as the shower and lights/fan are on different CUs'. Is there an isolator for the fan? If so operate it and see if the lights stop flickering.
I took it that it was a straight replacement with the same kW but different model.Unless I have missed something did they just replace the shower or replace the shower and rewire a new circuit for the shower.
What are you getting atSo it's a mystery that about 100 Electricians on here would love to solve, even if just to show up those that've retired from the field injured
I'm fired up with curiosity about what's caused this and I'm guessing I won't be alone in that. And the fact that no answers forthcoming from Shower Co or DNO just makes it more enticingWhat are you getting at
What are you getting at Wilko
Hi Wilko,
I've contacted NICEIC and ELECSA (who I was told are the same company from the man I spoke to at their technical dept.) and also ECA. They have all said contact the electric board as it sounds like a supply issue. Hopefully now they have agreed to send someone out again they can let us know. If all is fine (and I hope so) then I don't know what our next step is.
To be fair that's what we are all doing from afar.That's complete BS ..................impossible to make such a diagnosis over the phone

Right Murdoch, the shower company are buck passing cuz they don't have a clue, fit the shower it gets hot, submit invoice, anything wrong someone else's problem.That's complete BS ..................impossible to make such a diagnosis over the phone
Don't worry Tel, no big deal.and i get a dislike from OP for suggesting ghostbusters, so i'm out.
Should you wish to do this, please be aware that a change in the requirements means that the bulbs are not intended for domestic use as stated on the packaging.As an aside, you can still get 40 W, 60W, 100W and even 150W incandescent bulbs from lots of various specialist internet suppliers. Search for "Rough Service" bulbs. When you find them, stock up on the ones you want. You can't purchase them from major and/or high street retailers any more. They also last longer than the old normal ones as the are 2000 hours rated (old normal ones were 1000 hours rated).
