we live in an ex-authority house which is almost 40 years old. I want to replace all the lightswitches - which are the original plastic curved fronted ones - with brushed steel switches. Having taken off the cover of the switch in the hallway, there is no earth wire in the box behind. Clearly there needs to be an earth with the metal fixing. What can I do about it? Is there a way I can sort it out without calling out an electrician?
