Hey Guys after some advice ,
ive had a client who has had her lights changed from low volts(12v) to mains(230v) and has found that the transformer cable has been cut and stripped being a 2 core cable and wired into the new GU10 Lights
she has asked me to wire them to have an earth as stated on the manufacturers box of the new light it requires an earth
do i have to change the 2 core cable
or can you have an earth fly lead from the jb to the light as i see many times single insulated earths on cheap downlights to wire your lighting earth into i know your probably thinking don't be lazy and change the cable but there is like 70 lights to do out of good will so want to keep time down
and bonding to gas and water is single insulated anyways
any help thanks in advanced
