So when connected to another part of the house without an extension cable it doesnt exhibit the issue? Just want to confirm that so if anyone else comes across this issue, at least we know for sure. This will also tell you if the light fixture is at fault or not.

If it doesnt have any issues when connected directly to a socket by itself on another part of the house, then you can safely assume there is no issues with your light unit. I would also get an electrician to check out your circuit for under the tank.

I would also put the light on another part of the house and connect it with a GFCI protector. This will show if there is any electrical leakage with the ATI unit.

Also, are you in Europe or USA?
