as i do like that thinking, im pretty sure some spotties earth through the metal base of the globe and through the metal surround of the spottie, i would much prefere the power going straight to the positive of the light,

now, more than likely the Black wire with the white trace will be you earthk, and the yellow will be the power,

simple, just pull it apart and check it,
