light switch and dry lined wall box

[peteg40]

i've wired a single 2 way switch in with twin and earth and used a dry lined wall box... but there is no earth either on the switch or on the back box.... what do i do with the earth cable? do i just not connect it and cover it?

thanks for replies

sleeve it with earth sleeving (green/yellow) and terminate in a section of connector strip, do not cut it back, its a right pain when you change the switch for a metal one at a later date, and need to earth it. Is the earth connected to the ring cpc?

yes the earth is connected to the ring so i'll just connect it to a terminal block - cheers
