Afternoon All.

Could someone please advise a good source for class 2 ceiling light fittings. Looking for modern LED types. My house has no earth in the lighting circuit.

Thanks
 
Looking for style similar to attached.

It's not just that it's missing an earth, in my experiences old circuits are often riddled with junction boxes with splayed terminals and the cores hanging out or choc block and tape. All buried under insulation.
Wireless switches are now available so you can rewire without chasing new switch drops.
Some imported lights claim to be class 2 but it can be questionable and the connectors they provide are pants.
 
Since 1966 lighting circuits have required an earth. It’s about time this was resolved really.
1st choice is a new circuit.
2nd choice is providing an earth from a convenient point for the additions and their switching.
