Specialist equipment can detect exactly where the problem is in a wire, and give a lot of detail. Expensive to buy though, cheaper to get an electrician. | |
| Oct 2, 2020 at 12:25 | comment | added | Mr. Boy | I hadn't considered a loose connection could cause fluctuations like this so I'll double-check whatever I can get access to. It seems unlikely to be a power limitation - it was previously running 300W of filament bulbs and now we're LED it's more like 40W. Is there any way I can confirm any of this e.g. with a multi-meter, or is it a case of trial and error? | |
