[QUOTE="Jake S, post: 528405, member: 35140"] Hi, I'm trying to install two new light fittings in an upstairs bedroom. The current fittings are basic celling lights but only have a live and neutral wire, no earth. My new fittings use the same GU10 bulbs but also has a connector for an earth wire. I'm confused as I don't know if this is intentional or even legal. The new fittings are a metal frame so I don't want to install something that's not safe. Any advice is massively appreciated. I'll attach some photos to try better explain my situation.[ATTACH type="full"]13709[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]13710[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]13711[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
