My led wall light has 3 wires, I was expecting just live and neutral?

I have a live, neutral and another connection with both live and neutral.

Trying to connect to n and l wires coming out the wall?
 
TL;DR
Help wiring led wall light
I hope these earths there as well as live and neutrals...

Sounds like someone tried to loop in at a wall light like they do at ceiling rises....


Picture please.
a picture paints a thousand words
 
is there a second wall light, probably on the same wall?
 
O jesus .....Its friday for sure !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Connect the wires from the wall into the terminal block marked L/N and with luck earth . dont worry about the rest
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
See, pictures always help.

you need to use the L and N on the left of the picture.
However, the sticker on the fitting shows this as “double insulated” (square inside a square) but as it is, it’s NOT double insulated and somehow needs to be earthed.
