Class 2 light and earth wire?

[CRAIGNEWHAM]

Evening,
I have a class 2 light for the bathroom, and it has its own L & N wires that go into connectors in a type of small chocbox, that go into the loft. Whats the best way/regulation to terminate the incoming earth?
Cheers

If it has no earth terminal, then i sleeve it about an inch longer than the conductor, bend it back on itself and put it in a bit of connector block, and poke it back up into the ceiling, but keep it accessible for future use/ testing etc.

chocbloc, terminal crimp, as long and terminated it will be fine!

Thanks Howard, Danny
So it doesnt need to be terminated in any sort of enclosure?

 

[cagedanimal2010]

you could class the fitting as an enclosure, need a driver to get in to it don't ya?

The fitting actually has its own wires coming out of the top, a L & N that go into a small chocbloc type thing. No earth fitting in that though. So cant run the incoming cable into the fitting at all. So all the wires and in the loft.

wire everything in the loft then, and just block the earth end.
