[QUOTE="ubntplayer, post: 484977, member: 31668"] Ok thanks, fair enough. The existing fitting that came with the house is metal and has an earth wire that's just sitting there not connected - so that's not going to be at all safe! I'm changing it because it has a transformer in the light fitting that makes an annoying buzzing sound :( On the fuse box side, there is no RCD on the lighting circuits. If I buy a double insulated fitting, will it wire into that junction box directly? Or will I need other parts/wires? It's going to be a few years before I can do a full house rewire sadly. [/QUOTE]
