[QUOTE="bertieogg, post: 393878, member: 26349"] Ive got some vintage metal wall lights that I need to rewire to current UK standards. Im comfortable with rewiring a table lamp, and earthing through the lamp holder but Im not sure how to do it for a wall light. One of the lamps has the neutral & live coming out & then the earth is attached on its own to a hook which attaches to the wall hook. Is this sufficient? One also has just the neutral & live coming out & then there is a plastic type clamp which they go through then come out of - I dont know what this does...? Im keen to learn all of this but need some guidance as it obviously needs to be done right!!! All the best Bertie [/QUOTE]
