I think I pay for the services of a professional! We have a tame electrician we use at work, I'll get him onto it.

Definately LV Lamps. I could be wrong about the junction box, as it's tricky to see it through a 63mm hole!

I took the power from what I thought was the last light in the chain. Switched on and everything was fine for about 2 minutes, then a muffled pop and the l...
