    Hanging heavy chandelier (17kg) - something missing???

    Thanks for all of the help, cracked on with it this evening and just finished it. Pictures below of what I did.

    Hanging heavy chandelier (17kg) - something missing???

    That's starting to make sense. A problem I might have if wiring in the ceiling void would be the separate earth wire from the plate might not have enough length to get up there. So I might have to bring the wires back down. Here are a couple of other photos of the cup as requested.

    Hi all, I purchased a chandelier from Oka https://www.okadirect.com/curlicue-chandelier.aspx which comes with no instructions and their customer service aren't able to answer my questions - they suggest that it should be fitted by a professional electrician - although they fail to mention that...
