Best Answer
  • Turn off the power

    First make sure the power is turned off. The safest way to do this is to switch the large red power button to 'off' on the fuse box.

  • Let it cool

    Allow the bulb to cool before touching it.

  • Use a ladder

    Ensure you can safely reach the bulb by using a stepladder; always use a non conductive stepladder - for example, made of fibreglass. If the light fitting is too high to reach with a stepladder you may need to have use of a mobile elevating work platform - if so please contact Store Operations

  • Ensure the area has sufficient light to enable the change to be done safely. This cannot be done in darkness - if necessary arrange an appropriate light source
  • Wear protective eyewear. The bulb's glass may be broken or cracked, so protect your eyes!
