So I received my Wayfair light today - it’s a six light semi flush ceiling light.
I fitted it however only 4 out of the 6 bulbs lit up (all bulbs rotated and all work so not bad bulbs).
the wiring in the ceiling is a standard end of line 3 wires - live/ neutral/ earth.
the light has 4 connections;
Earth - green yellow
Neutral - x3 blue wires going into 1 junction
Live - x2 black wires going into 1 connection.
great so I wired these up with the ceiling wires.
As mentioned only 4 of the 6 light bulbs worked.
the 4 th wire is a single black wire - it has a red end cover and a label saying earth -
This totally blew my mind so I ignored it,,, any ideas what this is and should it be connected or have I just got a faulty light
