Campaign group Electrical Safety First says flickering lights and sulphuric smells in the home mean it is time to call an electrician
A street lamp mounted on a bracket and column A high pressure sodium street light fixture. Street light interference, sometimes called high voltage syndrome, is the claimed ability of individuals to turn street lights or outside building security lights on or off when passing near them. [1]
In visual perception, flicker is a human-visible change in luminance of an illuminated surface or light source which can be due to fluctuations of the light source itself, or due to external causes such as due to rapid fluctuations in the voltage of the power supply (power-line flicker) or incompatibility with an external dimmer.
Fluorescent lamps with magnetic ballasts flicker at a normally unnoticeable frequency of 100 or 120 Hz (twice of the utility frequency; the lamp is lit on both the positive and negative half-wave of a cycle). This flickering can cause problems for some individuals with light sensitivity [1] and are
Power-line flicker is a visible change in brightness of a lamp due to rapid fluctuations in the voltage of the power supply. The voltage drop is generated over the source impedance of the grid by the changing load current of an equipment or facility. These fluctuations in time generate flicker.
Fluorescent lamps with magnetic ballasts flicker at a normally unnoticeable frequency of 100 or 120 Hz and this flickering can cause problems for some individuals with light sensitivity; [69] they are listed as problematic for some individuals with autism, epilepsy, [70] lupus, [71] chronic fatigue syndrome, Lyme disease, [72] and vertigo.

Does your dog bark at nothing? Like it’s really late at night, the house is all quiet, and your dog, out of the blue, launches into a barking spree aimed at some random corner of the living room ...
Foul smells are also associated with poltergeist occurrences, as well as spontaneous fires and different electrical issues such as flickering lights. [1] These manifestations have been recorded in many cultures and countries, including Brazil, Australia, the United States, Japan and most European nations.
