Why does my Energy Saving light bulb flash lightly after I turn it off. It flashes all night every 2 seconds?
On a 2 wire power system, one wire is “phase” or “live” and the other is “nutral” or “ground”.
It sounds like the live wire is not switched off by your light switch.
In other words, the ground wire is the one going to the swich.
I have come across flouresent lights that glowed all night for this same reason. Get your electrician to check. I think you will find that the live wire is connected at all times to your lamp, and the return wire from the lamp to the switch is live (via the lamp) at all times. The capacitance effect of the wiring is allowing the lamp to momentarily flash. But please use your elctrician to check and reverse the two mains wires
