Hey guys This week I will be Installing Exterior down lights aka soffit lights. If you have done any electrical work before then it wont be a hard project. But if your brand new to Electrical work then I suggest you familiarize yourself with the basics before you get started.
Disclaimer Working with electricity is dangerous If you do not know what your doing hire someone with the proper training to do it for you. I am not a licensed electrician, I am only showing you how I installed these lights.
There are a lot of details covered in this video and I don't have enough space to type it all out. So the important parts are the wiring, in this case its really simple. The wires going into the lights, all you have to do is connect all blacks together, all whites together, and all grounds together. Inside the switch box you will connect both whites together and connect both grounds to the ground on your switch, then connect one black wire to one side of the switch and the other black wire to the opposite side of the switch as shown in the video. To bring power to your light switch you will need to splice into an existing wire on the same circuit.
