Hello all,
We have a strange problem with our electrics. Our main living room light does not work or the wall lights in the same room. Same thing in the master bedroom and one of the lights in the hall. All other lights in the house are fine.
I invited a friend over who knows something of electrics and he checked the fuses and took voltage readings at the light fixture and the at switches.
He found that there was no voltage at the switch ( about 3V ) but managed to get a reading of 246V at the light fixture in the lving room. He got about 150V in the hall !!!
We both thought you should either get 0V or 240V !!
Does anybody know what could cause these strange readings or have had similar problems in their house ?
Cheers
