I have some external lights, and wanted to add another light, but it requires an earth. Unfortunately, all the existing lights are two core, and there are no earth wires externally. I was thinking of adding an earth spike in the ground, but would appreciate a recommendation as to what is required, and the earth cable capacity recommended if it is "just" for one or two lights? I was thinking an earth spike, and earth cable capable of handling maybe 10Amps, or am I woefully wrong?! And apart from the cable, what are the "right" additional parts to make the earth legitimate? Many thanks,
