[QUOTE="newfutile, post: 555010, member: 36842"] i did all the dead testing which had good results,when I fitted a contactor override switch (actually a photocell override) i measured 24 volts ac with 2 pole tester at the first bollard which was lit, this was enough to light up 2 x 240 volt led lamps, turns out the coil was supplying the neutral (the contactor was buzzing). i thought wiring the contactor the same was as previous was the best course (not knowing the lights have never worked well). this was not helped by a photocell 20 foot up in the air, why did they do this the sun reaches all the way to the ground.
