[QUOTE="Jph85, post: 486139, member: 31787"] Apologies in advance for this very simple question... I understand that if a dimmer switch plate is metal it must be earthed. I am replacing one plastic dimmer switch plate with another. However, on the inside of the face plate there is a metal plate which the old switch did not have. (Apologies, I can’t figure out how to add a picture) Does this then need to be earthed? Or is it fine without? Many thanks for any help in advance. [/QUOTE]
