Looking to replace a 3 gang light switch in my kitchen that sounds like it’s been arcing / crackling when a switch is used.
Took the screws out to have a look this morning and noticed that the switch faceplate is not earthed - the earth wires all seem to terminate at the back box.
Is this ok? Or should the face plate it be earthed to the back box too?
I’ve attached a couple of photos.
