I know this has been talked about a lot but this is my situation.
I live in a house built in the 60's.Now for some reason the light switches don,t have an earth connection but all the light fittings do apart from the Kitchen.Therefore in other parts of the house i have metal lights but plastics switches for obvious reasons.The point i am trying to make is i want to fit a metal light to my kitchen.Can i connect (spur off) to the earth of another light fitting in the house.I don't think a earth wire has been cut back in the kitchen as when taking the floorboards up i could not see one.
Any suggestions
Thanks
