Had a call about blinking 2?4 LED lay-ins our guys recently installed. Noticed they were trying to dim them incandescent dimmers. Told them that was the problem.
Told me they first tried LED dimmers and had the same issue. The now installed incandescent dimmer is what the luminaire manufacture recommended.
They also told me when they called the manufacture back to say the issue hadn't been resolved they where told they needed a 'super neutral'.:blink::lol:
This was an open office space with 20 fixtures on a 4 wire MWBC. I took the 3 ungrounded conductors and spliced them up to one breaker. Bingo, no blinking.
This goes against rational reasoning so I figured a heads up was in order.
