Fluorescent light dimming problem.
We ve had problems for years we are fluorescent lights dimming or not coming on at times of high humidity.
Flickering or dimming lights might indicate a dangerous condition risking a building fire or an electrical shock.
When one or more fluorescent light fixtures are humming or flickering or if the light simply won t turn on the problem may be something as simple as a bad fluorescent bulb.

Sometimes i can get them on by flipping the light switch off and on several times and out of the three maybe one will only come on.

This is one of the concerning problems with the fluorescent lights.
