Hi,
I am replacing all the light switches in my house from metal switches to plastic ones. All the mounting boxes are metal.
I have a couple which have no earth terminal or screw but all the cable is two core and earth.
What should I do with the earth cable? Some people have said I should tape it off, others say I should try to connect it to the mounting box. Any suggestions of how to do this?
