Double Insulated & Earthed

Double Insulated Explained

'Electrical power tools or equiptment, such as light fittings, with parts that carry current being insulated from the person using it by internal insulation in addition to a non-conducting outer casing.'

Put simply, the light fitting you are viewing has an extra level of insulation through its cable, to protect the consumer from the parts of the light fitting that carry an electrical current. Light fittings that are double insulated do not require earthing.

Please consult your electrician for further advice!

Earthed Explained

'fastening electrical equipment to earth.'

Most light fittings require earthing to protect the user should any part of the fitting become 'live.' This is especially important with fittings constructed from metals etc. Double insulated fittings do not require earthing.
