I'm replacing some wall lights. The old ones use the live and neutral wires. There is no earth wire. The new lights are Class 1 and apparently have to be earthed. With no earth wire in the wall what are my options? Help appreciated. Cheers.[/b]

Rewire that part of the circuit or take your wall lights back and exchange them for Class 2.
 
Is there:

No earth wire in the circuit at all?

No earth wire in the cable feeding the walllight, but an earth in the circuit generally?

An earth wire thats been chopped off?
