On my newly purchased wall light there is only a blue and brown wire and no earth. The connection from the wall however has brown, blue and an earth wire. My question is can I just cap the earth wire off and tuck into the light base? If so what is the safest way of doing this? Attached light and wall. Thanks in advance.
