LD11 and Neutrals
- Subject: LD11 and Neutrals
- From: "Dean Smith" <dean@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

I have a mixture of LD11 controlled lights and "normal"
lights on my
Lighting ring. I was just about to change a light fitting on one of the
non-X10 normal fittings and was just checking I was happy which wire was
which in the ceiling rose.
I discovered I have 230V on the neutral - By both multimeter and "live
indicating screwdriver". Live + N show 0V between and both show 230V
to
Earth
I've traced it back and It looks like the LD11s cause the neutral to appear
"live".
Now everything works and no MCB/RCDs have tripped since I've had the LD11s
in (.3 years) but is this normal ??
I think I've just hit the upper limit of my electrics knowledge - if there
is no difference in potential between L & N - how do the lights work !
