I know that the old red wire goes to the new brown wire and the old black wire goes to the new blue wire but i have a earth wire coming out from the wall but no earth wire on the appliance? does anyone know what to do with the earth?|||Couple it to the back box of your outlet, or tape it up and leave it. If there is no earth wire out of the appliance, it is a 'Double Insulated' appliance and does not require earthing. Many portable appliances are like this these days.|||The ground or earth wire should get attached to the appliance cabinet.|||Check the instruction manual of your new appliance. There is usually a green grounding screw for your ground (earth) wire.|||You may have to screw it into the back of the appliance. Read instructions.
look for a ground symbol and a green screw that comes with the appliance. Most of the time they have a green wire hanging out of the back. Attach to this.
Some dont and just coil the ground wire back in the box.
