Old Crabtree light switches OK?
I have old Crabtree light switches , 250 volts,
brown, bakelite? I'm rewiring with new cable but they have no earth. OK to leave the earth wire unconnected at the back? The screw which holds the backplate is hidden behind the switches, the screws which hold the switches to the wood backplate are hidden by the front of the switches so the bolts which hold the front plates on are not connected to anything else metal so they're safe? Or must I get new switches with an earth terminal? george |
