This lighting system is dated now, but it means that if your light stops working and it\u2019s not the bulb then it\u2019s almost certainly a transformer which has blown. The 12v lighting transformer wiring consists of removing the lamp holder, pulling out the faulty transformer and replacing with a new transformer. The repair is a fairly straightforward one as transformers are relatively widespread and easy to buy. If you find you have a lot of 12v transformers in your property then it may be worth considering switching over your lighting to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qvsdirect.com\/lighting-lamps\/lamps-accessories\/lamps-tubes-bulbs\/gu10-lamps-bulbs\">GU10 LED<\/a> lamps as typically these lamps draw around 4w as apposed to 35\/50w and can be wired directly into the lighting circuit without the need for a transformer.<\/p>\n<\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">@media only screen and (max-width:1024px) {.fusion-title.fusion-title-3{margin-top:10px!important;margin-bottom:15px!important;}}@media only screen and (max-width:640px) {.fusion-title.fusion-title-3{margin-top:10px!important;margin-bottom:10px!important;}}<\/style><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-3 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-center fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-five\" style=\"margin-top:10px;margin-bottom:15px;\"><h5 class=\"title-heading-center\" style=\"margin:0;color:#000000;\">Time guide<\/h5><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-2\" style=\"text-align:center;transform:translate3d(0,0,0);\"><p>12v lighting transformer wiring usually takes around half an hour per transformer but this is access dependent.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-0{width:100% !important;margin-top : 0px;margin-bottom : 20px;}.fusion-builder-column-0 > .fusion-column-wrapper {padding-top : 0px !important;padding-right : 0px !important;margin-right : 1.92%;padding-bottom : 0px !important;padding-left : 0px !important;margin-left : 1.92%;}@media only screen and (max-width:1024px) {.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-0{width:100% !important;order : 0;}.fusion-builder-column-0 > .fusion-column-wrapper {margin-right : 1.92%;margin-left : 1.92%;}}@media only screen and (max-width:640px) {.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-0{width:100% !important;order : 0;}.fusion-builder-column-0 > .fusion-column-wrapper {margin-right : 1.92%;margin-left : 1.92%;}}<\/style><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">.fusion-body .fusion-flex-container.fusion-builder-row-1{ padding-top : 0px;margin-top : 0px;padding-right : 0px;padding-bottom : 0px;margin-bottom : 0px;padding-left : 0px;}<\/style><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":578,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"100-width.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-744","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/clientdemoweb.com\/handymanbromley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/744","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/clientdemoweb.com\/handymanbromley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/clientdemoweb.com\/handymanbromley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/clientdemoweb.com\/handymanbromley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/clientdemoweb.com\/handymanbromley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=744"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/clientdemoweb.com\/handymanbromley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/744\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":789,"href":"https:\/\/clientdemoweb.com\/handymanbromley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/744\/revisions\/789"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/clientdemoweb.com\/handymanbromley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/578"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/clientdemoweb.com\/handymanbromley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=744"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
