Hi,
I am replacing some light sockets and power sockets at home and having initially looked at one of the wall single switches I can see that the faceplate (plastic) is not earthed, but the incoming supply has an earth which is terminated into the metal back box.
The new face plates that I have purchased state that they they need to be earthed and have a standard screw down earth point on the back. I dont seem to have enough room on the back box earth point to add an earth between the back and the new faceplate.
What can I do?
Thanks
Adam
