Hi all, hopefully a rather straightforward issue that I'm hoping you can help with.
Over the weekend I was changing a wall-mounted porch (interior) light for ceiling-mounted spots.
The original light was connected with a regular Twin and Earth cable.
The spotlight kit included a transformer box with connections for live and neutral, but not earth.
The installation instructions stated to 'run the earth back on itself' as the kit does not require earthing.
So.... what does this mean? What should I do with the 'spare' earth wire?
To give further detail, the Twin and Earth cable originates from a junction box, which is fed with a Twin cable (no earth). I'm a little hesitant to simply leave the earth unconnected.
Thanks in advance
