Why are the lights blinking to illuminate the stairs?

Dmitry asks:
Kind time of the day, I encountered a strange situation, the customer brought the lamps to illuminate the steps, during installation it turned out that the lamps between the first and second floors are blinking off, and the lamps between 2 and 3 are working normally.

Between the first and second transient two-gang switches are installed from three places (one up key switches on, the second one our lamps), the cross ones are separated separately. When checking, I checked with an ordinary light bulb, everything worked fine.

Further, I connected these lamps at any point in the house, they flash everywhere (except for that place on the floor 2-3) there is a two key switch, as in the whole house almost. All switches without backlight.

The answer to the question:
Hello! Are the lamps here blinking even if connected not directly to the switch, but directly between phase and zero? And they, I understand correctly, are LED?

I assume 2 causes of the problem

  1. Installation error;
  2. Somewhere, a leak is either to the ground or to the phase. See junction boxes and wiring integrity! You can ring it with a megaohmmeter for resistance.

By the way, try connecting them through a separate single-key crossover switch. Maybe the problem is still with the switches.
