[QUOTE="Evans Electric, post: 472602, member: 1408"] Young couple move in four doors up the road , after a few weeks he asks me to look at the lights ....every time the doorbell is rung , the lights flicker :C I'm thinking WTGrape ! Is the doorbell 240V connected to the lights ? Whats going on ? Sure enough , press the bell , lights do a flicker sequence . I'm still bemused when he says Oh theres a box in this cupboard , dunno what it is , can you disconnect it . It turned out , the previous owner was stone deaf , the box was a panel with the lighting circuits passing through and the 12V bell was activating a trembler relay for the lights . Fitted by Age Concern or someone . As always , I kept it for the next 10 years on the " This 'll come in useful principle " but like many things , it never did. [/QUOTE]
