The later management and maintenance costs of luminaires are often a headache. People not only need to regularly check the damage of luminaires, and guarantee the light fixture maintenance costs low.
Most maintenance luminaires cost between $130 and $180. This is not a small sum, normally, some light fixtures just need occasional check out. We are not professionals and cannot control the situation of lighting fixtures. Consider the many materials needed for this job, including light bulbs, screws, sockets, and tools. Your specific fixture may also need to be repaired. Checking the damage and assessing the situation will give you a clear idea of what needs to be done.
How to quickly check the indoor lighting system, find the reason, then repair it?
There may be two situations as below:
- The switch has no effect on turning on or off the lamp, or the lamp will not light at all;
- The lamps flicker intermittently and are not controlled by the switch. This kind of situation can basically be determined to be the problem of the lamp body itself.
For the first situation, there are two possibilities:
- The wall switch is broken, we can use the ohmmeter to measure whether the internal power cord is normal, check whether the line is intact, and whether there is any damage;
- Check whether the power cord of the interface connected to the lighting fixture is intact and the power cord can supply power normally. If the two places are working normally, it means that there is a problem inside the lamp body. The lamp body needs to be disassembled. During the disassembly, the power supply should be disconnected to avoid electric shock, ensure our body safety.
Aiming at the phenomenon of flashing in the second type of lamps during the lighting process, it can basically be concluded that it is the problem of the lamps themselves.
There are two situation:
- The switch contacts of the lamp are damaged, that is, the contact is poor, occasionally the sound of "hiss" will be heard;
- The power cord is in poor contact and has become loose. The power cord should be hidden in a hidden place to prevent it from being touched and away from wet area.
Through the above troubleshooting, you can quickly find the problem and solve the damaged area in a targeted manner. It is very important that if non-professionals repair the lighting fixtures, it is best to take protective measures to avoid the risk of electric shock.
