Electrician has rcommended fitting HV fluorescent lighting in a kitchen.
Never heard of this - anyone know
whether it works and is it safe? TIA.

Dunno about HV (that would be High Voltage, which would be above 1000
Volts, which simply doesn't exist in a domestic context!).

OTOH there's HF == High Frequency which is decent modern fittings which
don't do that annoying flick-start (and flicker even more annoyingly when
they're on the way out). If you're happy with fluorescent then HF is
definitely the biz - and the ones B&Q does are under £25 for a normal
1500mm (5' in old money).
