Double Insulated Lights

Double insulated is a term used to describe the special condition of a fitting, such as a light that requires no earth when it is being installed. Often in older houses, there can be a lack of an earth within the power circuit. In these circumstances the consumer can purchase double insulated lights from a retailer. Instead of having the usual three wires (live, neutral and earth) double insulated lights only have the live and the neutral because they have been specially manufactured with extra protection. Often this can be helped by the use of non-metallic wall / ceiling fixings creating a barrier. Double Insulated Lights should always carry the above symbol marked somewhere on the fitting.

There isn't currently a massive range of Double Insulated Lights for consumers to buy. Often you will have to hunt through shops and catalogues before finding anything suitable for your home.
