-Although the fitting may look fine, it may be that a bulb has been over tightened slightly in the fitting. To remedy this, unplug your light fitting from the mains, and look into the fitting where the bulb screws in. In the centre, at bottom, you will see a piece of metal that sticks up slightly. If you take a small screw driver and rise this piece of metal up a little so it sticks up a little prouder. This will allow it to make a better contact with the bulb and alleviate any possible arching issues.-Use a good quality surge protector to avoid premature failure of mercury vapour bulbs due to power surges.
