What-ho.

Strange experience occurred at the weekend. We have one of [url= http://www.johnlewis.com/john-lewis-carlita-ceiling-light-5-arm/p150338 ]these[/url] 5-arm chandeliers. It's attached to a single gang dimmer - no other connections or switches.

Recently the dimmable candle bulbs have been going pop and I hadn't got round to replacing two of them, but according to my wife (who was in the room at the time) the remaining three bulbs just went 'pop' at once and tripped the consumer unit.

I replaced the bulbs and reset the CU but nothing's working now - the whole light appears to have gone.

My initial thought it that the terminal block connector might have blown.

Is there anything else it could be?
