I am replacing an old light fitting with a chandelier (metallic mainly). Having removed the old light fitting I have live earth and neutral wires coming from the ceiling which i have then fitted to the same coming from the chandelier. However, there is an extra earth in the chandelier which is just screwed to the casing with an end dangling free.
My question is, does the end of this other earth need to be attached to anything ( eg the other 2 earth wires), or have i already earthed the appliance adequately with the earth to earth connection from my electrics to the one from the main wire of the chandelier.
Thanks for any help that anyone can offer me.
