All electrical equipment should be grounded. This is especially true in the case of fluorescent lighting, as the close approximation of the tubes to the grounded fixture body is what helps them to ignite.

Yes, it is recommended to earth the kitchen fluorescent light fixture for safety purposes. Earthing, also known as grounding, helps to prevent electrical shocks in the event of a fault or short circuit in the electrical system. It provides a safe path for current to flow into the ground, protecting both individuals and appliances.
