Why does the new chandelier stink burnt?

Tatyana asks:
The new chandelier began to emit a smell on the second evening of work. It smelled burnt - either rubber or plastic. An electrician called out that the chandelier is connected correctly, the problem is most likely in the low quality of parts of a cheap chandelier. His advice: to replace incandescent lamps with energy-saving ones, they will not heat plastic cartridges like that.

Does it really help get rid of the smell? Maybe it would be worth replacing the cartridges? .. It would be better, of course, to replace the chandelier itself, but they will not accept it in the store, since neither the packaging nor the receipt has been preserved.

If you change the lamps, which ones are preferable: LED, energy-saving? Hoping for an answer - thanks!

The answer to the question:
Hello! What energy-saving do you mean? Compact fluorescent tubes? They also do not warm slightly. Yes, replace it with LEDs (LEDs are also energy-saving, as it were). I believe that you put the bulbs at 60-100 watts, and most of the Chinese table lamps, floor lamps. sconces and chandeliers are rated at 40-60 watts. Here is something that overheats. Cartridges if you have not yet swam do not need to be changed, except check. so that the central tongue touches the back of the cartridge well.
