I was looking a a site with some good information on dimming
Light dimmer circuits
and I saw some interesting information
"The "electronic transformers" used to power the 12V halogen lamps which are very fashionable for indoor lighting. Those "transformers" are small switching power supplies which just chop the mains at about 40kHz, so a small ferrite core can be used for the isolation and the voltage step-down (to 12V RMS)."
This could be the source of problems with noise or interference with other devices on the same power feed.
