Trying to wire up a Dar wall light but see no way to connect the earth as the plastic terminal only has two connections ( L/N) ?
 
possibly its a class II product. Double insulated. Square within a square symbol.

You just have to make the earth wire safe. (dont cut it off, because any future light fitting may need it.

Make sure you follow the fitting instructions, to maintain the double insulation. It might come with a near useless little black box for the connections that are an absolute PITA to deal with. You need to use this box, and any cable clamps.
