Wiring 3 Wire Floodlight to 2 Wire Outdoor Light

Mackzee · 2021-09-25 17:00:09

Hi, I want to replace my out door lights with proper floodlights. When I took off the outdoor light enclosure, I see that they only have 2 wires (live and neutral supply) but my new floodlights have live,neutral and earth. How can these floodlights be installed? Thanks,

You need to bring an earth cable to each of the new floodlights if you want to install them.
