An electrician told me the track for track lights will tend to become loose over time if fixed onto a plaster ceiling, is that true?
I'm in process of planning the lighting layout for my new home as well. I'm planning to go with downlights since the ceiling in plastered but I'm not sure how many do I need

QUOTE(Bjorn1688 @ May 24 2019, 12:54 AM) Depends on where and how you mount them. If you have it mounted into the supporting brackets or frames for the plaster ceiling then it is unlikely it would become loose. If it is mounted into the plaster boards, then as long as you don't adjust it too often it should not go loose, if it does it isn't a difficult fix. Ideally it should be mounted with a bolt washer and nut rather than a screw. Thanks for the explanation. Any advice on whether to use track lights or eyeball lights in living room and direct it on paintings to create a different effect from downlights?
