To change or install a new light

The modification or installation of a light can be as simple as changing a light bulb and safe when done correctly. Many people are afraid of power, because they simply do not know enough about electricity and how it works. With a few well-learned simple rules can save a lot of money on installation fees.

The lights in a thousand different shapes and sizes, colors and finishes to come. Plastic, metal, wood and glass are common materialsThe valves used today. You fixtures at big box stores to buy shops and shopping for home lighting. The shops usually with a line of fortifications higher final price, but can also order custom frames for you, or have done well. Box stores usually does not require the level of service. If you need a jar of jam cheaply from your garage door bracket, a $ 5.99 lamp is widely available. If youeight feet high chandelier for the dining room or second course $ 8000 U.S. dollars, a specialty store would be more in line with your needs. No no, I repeat, to try to install or replace the two feet to be replaced Chandler in the spotlight on your first attempt. Start with a cheap tank units.

The first thing you do is unpack the unit and make sure everything is included. Mounting screws, mounting plate, cable connectors, assembly instructions, and soof. They need an electrical tester (voltmeter or test light), instrument wire stripper, pliers with side cutters and a flat screwdriver. The next thing to do, without exception, turn off the power switch to the jack on the main switchboard. This is no exception. Your life could depend on it. Do not be reckless. Many people are injured every year, thinking that the power was turned off. Make sure there is no doubt .. If you have fear or doubtCall a professional. How to get out. I turn now to the switch, use your test equipment to verify the device is off the exit. Carefully remove the wire nuts and touch one lead of your meter every black and white wire. You should not have read or light. In this case, you are wrong in the switch. Do it again. Without electricity, we can now safely remove the old device. Remove any screws or bolts on the bracket, cable connectors, grounding straps and carefullythe old drive safely out of the way of disposal.

I think that is many times the new mounting bracket for the same as the old one and should not be replaced. That saves a bit 'of work and time. First, connect the bare copper wire to the bracket-wire solid copper ground the power cord into the jewel box. This is the bottom bracket and can offer a little support as you work. Then connect the white wire to the power cord white lighthousewith the flat nose pliers by turning the last inch of the wires together and then add a new wire nuts. Repeat this with the holder black wire.The is now connected. Then I placed a new bulb and turn on the switch. If someone there, go to the main switch and turn it for a test. If the unit is on, you have the job well. When the switch starts up, it could be a crossover cable, or bare wire to touch the electric field that causes a short circuit.Turn the switch back from work and check. Again with the power of work. Assuming that the performance test went well until the unit and carefully put the cables in the box eighth jewel perfectly well that the wire nuts to remove. Install the mounting screws on the wall bracket to hold the lamps required, necklaces or other accessories and ready to be added. Turn the power switch again. As you progress in the replacement of larger devices, more complex, you might want to try,Installing a new bracket, where there were none. In the National Electrical Code (NEC), almost all states recognize the authority, a new device is an extension of the buildings electrical system and requires review by an insurer. Many, many municipalities require a building or electrical permits for the job so well and you also need to copy the issuance of a certificate of inspection by the subscribers of the new electrical system.It happens in real life? Not really, but it is the code. Many lights are changed or added without the approval or inspections, and that is why great care must be taken with this work.

People add a outlet in the garage or basement and never thinking about this. A new bracket over the sink or even trade an old style tube technology for a new type with a hole in the ground, any changes to the electrical system of the buildings. An incorrectly installedOutput ground fault circuit (GFI) can provide a false sense of security and protection and, in fact, offer no. A defective GFI can cause death just to save $ 75 or so by a qualified electrician. I wired all the parts of a house by the homeowner, regardless of the number of outlets on a single switch, lights, markets, wrong wire size, the placement of output, etc. found rewired. All these requirements are there for a reason. You and your families safety dependsit. If you do not know the rules to call someone who does. Many communities today need an electrician to have a license. If they do, they are asked, before seeing it - it works on your house. Unauthorized modification of an electrical system of the buildings can be much trouble with your insurance company in case of fire or injury aa. In my area, a homeowner can do their jobs, but is subject to the same rules and controls are carried as an electrician.

If you choose toManage the addition of a new light, the rules more or less the same as for a light ten lights. Check the amperage draw on the device, add the other elements, and if the switch is less than the capacity of switches (15 amp perhaps) then your good to go. We install a vessel outside of a side door in this example. Find the nearest power source is powered from the panel. This can be a relief, but it is rarely a different light. If youFeed, which is an existing support, have the device to let you use your new lamp, and this is generally a no no. If it's an outlet nearby, the power supply when the switch is off to find, examine the inside of the box by the number of wires. If there are two wires or not, there is a good place to get into the electrical system without overloading the electrical connection box .. With the switch off, carefully loosen the existing socket and carefully pullout of the box. The wires will be with him at the same time exposing the wire nuts. Manage your new power line from the existing field to the new box was installed on the light switch and bracket to the door. The wire size of at least fourteen gauge wire. I use all twelve gauge for added security. The wire has a black, white and a copper wire inside the jacket. Pull the thread into and through the electric fields at both ends. Leave about a foot of wireprominent of all the speakers. If you use plastic chests have a card that holds the wire in place, without any work to hold the thread. If you have jewelry boxes with metal, you will find a clip and bolt in the chest, which are close to fix the power cable needs. Tighten the screw, but not enough to crimp or cut the plastic sheath on the power cord. If the new line is exposed stud walls, connect the cables to the bolts with the correct electrical staples. AStaple food should be within four to six inches of the hole and the rest of the wire should be attached enough to secure the wire. Again, do not drive the staples so deep that you cut or crimp the cable jacket.

Prepare the jam jar holder, and install it by following the instructions provided with the bracket. These simple devices with only two screws on the mounting bracket for the jewel-box up to three Connect the black wire,White and copper ground wires, and the final two screws or bolts to fasten the bracket to the bracket .. Install the bulb and does not cover or glass.

Now install the switch. Connect the two bare copper wires with a nut and pack firmly into the back of the box. Connect the two white wires with a wire nut and wrap in the box. Now with two blacks wires, tapes back ¾ inch wire wrap, fold the ends of the wire into a loop and place it firmly inthe screws on the side of the switch. I like to wrap a strip of black electricians tape around my switches and outlets to cover the screws. The removal of the post, it helps prevent accidental impacts from someone putting his finger on the screws. Attach the switch to the precious stones with the screws provided.

The passage at the end of the wire, where did you find your power, it is assumed that an outlet for this example. Strip behind the plastic on the cable outer sheathaway in the box, as you can get the exposure of the three wires inside. Be careful not to damage the threads on the outside handle black and white. The copper wire does not cover. Connect the wire solid copper, solid copper wire in the box or the green screw on the gem socket, if available. Thus, the cable grounding. Connect the white wire and black jack. Make white to black and white connected, is black. Do not cross the wire colors orTo create a short circuit in the system. A method for the new stores is back strip covering about ¾ of an inch of wire and insert the wire into the hole right in the back of the hoof. You will see that the wires are white and blacks holes on each side. If the black hole than on the one hand, the white in the lower hole on the other. This configuration is both openings in the shell have power. A better method is to remove the cables and screws to attachthe sides of the socket. The screws are chrome-plated or silver and brass. A simple reminder to yourself is black or brass B = B. If you connect the cable to your business, simply use the remaining two opposite holes and you switch to full-time power of your light. Replace the plug to its original position in the box.

Turn the switch on the fuse again at this time. If all your work has been done correctly, the switch stays on with no problems. When it starts, youhave a short and you need to check your work. Turn on the switch and check all the connectors and cable lines to ensure no cross, or touch the metal boxes, etc. When the switch is attempting to mount the light switch on the lights properly insured. If the device is working properly, install the cover plate and output. Your vase is made ​​light.

All connections are basically the same, perhaps with more screws or bolts, and manyDozens of components to be assembled, but the wiring is the same. Once you learn this method of wiring base best you can for three and four-way switches and other wiring more complicated tasks progress.
