  • I have an old four socket chandelier that kills bulbs.

    Possibly a loose connection either on the ceiling rose connection or on the lamp holders themselves. If it's happening to all the lamps I look at the ceiling connection or the light switch for loose terminal screws and/or signs of arcing.

  • Thanks. It did the same in the old apartment so I guess I should look at where the cable split out to each lamp, right?
    What are signs of arcing?

  • What are signs of arcing?

    Blackened terminals or a slight pitting in the metal. It's usually due to the terminal screws being slightly loose.
