Hi,
We have a problem with bulbs blowing all over the house. I rang the ESB and they told me that they upgraded the network to supply 240V to all houses. He explained that we are probably using 230V bulbs and should replace them with 240V bulbs. We decided to get energy conscious and replaced all our bulbs with CFL bulbs. But these bulbs are not very bright and I ended up going back to ordinary bulbs in most rooms, especially the kitchen. But recently, they've starting blowing again. I can't find 240V bulbs. Can they be sourced? Or is there anything we can do to lower the voltage coming into the house?
Regards
