[QUOTE="RichyJ91, post: 525352, member: 34896"] Hello, I have zero experience with electrics (sorry!). I want to install a pendant light fixture so that I can use a different bulb. The previous fixture had a 3-prong bayonet bulb which seems to be outdated now? When I’ve taken it off there seems to be more wires present than I have slots for, and the new fixture seems to have no where for the Earth wire. Any advice would be much appreciated. It’s a landing light, with switches downstairs and upstairs, so I’m assuming that’s why there are extra wires? Photos are off the current wires, and new fixture. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
