Default Help please - light fittings

Perhaps this is a stupid question - but I have some light fittings that I bought which were quite expensive - I'd like to take them over to Perth with me.

Do live, neutral and earth wires work out there - it would be a shame to loose them....

Any help welcomed...

Laura

Hi

We asked this question a couple of months ago and the general opinion was they will work so we're definately taking ours but leaving behind our nice light switches and sockets cos they don't seem to work.

Smashing - we got a quote from a removal company and he advised us not to take them - I just wanted to make sure, just incase he was just saying that. They are delicate so perhaps he thought that they would be too fragile to ship ot something. I think I'll take the chance, however. He said they wouldnt work.

Great. Thanks.
