Hi Guys, I am seeing some dark spots on my wiring up near the light fittings and i'm a bit scared there is going to be a fire. Please look at the pics and give me some advice if you know what you are talking about... Thanks

Interesting Browny. I've tried lighting it using an oxy torch without much luck :lol: Are you sure you're not mistaking it with partical board? Cheers
It is a ceramic fitting
Does everyone just use normal electrical wire for this job, or is there a special heat resistant wire?
Please don't tell me to get an electrician, I want to DIY... thanks.
Ok thanks guys, I will rewire and get a wider spacer.
A little note for if/when you get it placed. When I installed this kind of thing I made a mini "insulator" out of multiple layers of alfoil and newspaper and had it sort of between the roof and the cage if that makes sense. It will protect the wood and the wiring from the intense heat that rises off those ceramic emitters
