I wired up some led lighting to my cupboard doors provided simple circuit below to illustrate as each door opens, the leds switch on.
Had a local sparky inspect to ensure all was well and advised me it needed redoing as the earths are not connected on the mains side. S1,2,3 represent 3 cupboard switches in parallel.
Now i am confused as the earth has nowhere to go, the circuit is purely switching ie all insulated switches have no earth connection, neither does the LED transformer?
Please see below diagram i knocked up and photos illustrating current state plus you can see one of the cupboard switches in the photo. I have left earth tails up to illustrate they are not connected.
TIA
