get a leakage tester and have a look, find out whats leaking. easy to do on a radial. maybe connections on some lamps are covered in dirt or damp somewhere.
 
Swap them out for LED, get a better light and save money at he same time! Everyone's a winner then!

Most of our sites have / are getting led upgrades, this particular site is being punted off our contract so im just looking to tide them over for the moment.

I do agree the led lighting now is more cost effective in the long run, and a nicer brighter light.

Good shout, like I say will be getting up there next week for a closer look. Think I will ask for a leakage clamp meter now I can justify it lol
