Light circuits in the home are explained using depictions and visual aids using real Romex wire, breakers, switches and lights. I wire the light fixtures in my metal garage office and air compressor room.

The man has an "air compressor room". This man is my kind of man.

I have watched 30(ish) different videos on wiring a switch and yours was the only 1 that made actual sense of the whole process. Thank you!

I did Electrical Engineering back then and never had anything like this. This is better than 4 year of my schooling 😅

oh my wow thank you soooo much for this video! I know how to hook up several lights to one switch, but for some reason my brain couldnt comprehend how to hook up multiple swtiches to multiple lights. Ive actually put off wiring my lights to make sure I understood it all first. This video is great!!

Really good explanaanktion on wiring. Best I've seen. Thank you!!

Bro- you showed everything but the one thing I needed! Where the wires go on the light housing!

@brettleybuilt 3 ай бұрын

There should be a ground screw or a green pigtail attached to the light housing. Attach the ground wire of the light to either one available, and then connect your hot and neutral wires to the lights hot and neutral wires.

@deluxxe8753 22 күн бұрын

Gotta remember to install it in this order Ground , neutral, hot

Thank you for this great video. I have a question, I know it is ac voltage and it keeps changing polarity ( sin signal), but I am still stressed about when it is to wire a light fixture let's say, some light fixtures like LED lights, doesn't show which one connects to hot (black) and which one to neutral (white). Would you please explain if it is matters or not whether flipping the hot with neutral.

@brettleybuilt 9 ай бұрын

There should be some type of indicator on the wires. Some wires have writing or a line on them to differentiate which wire is which.

It would have been nice to see what you did with the lights.

I have a few electrical videos that you can select in the description of the video.

@jessiemartinez7681 6 ай бұрын

question: is installing a fan with a light the same concept? Also, can you use the same gauge of wire and amp breaker as you use with lights?

@jessiemartinez7681 6 ай бұрын

never mind, I just found your ceiling fan install!

@henny1387 6 ай бұрын

hello Brett love your videos brother very helpful however I am very confused about wiring the first switch in the diagram you showed 3 different romex wire and you showed black and netural getting pigtaled with 3 different wires but when you wired the switch there were only 2 black and 2 netural wires no pig tale

I watched the video trying to find the exact spot you are talking about. Where in the video did you see this? I definitely want to make sure I understand what you are asking so I can verify everything for you.

@user-mr9sj1do4h 11 ай бұрын

I have a question that bothers me. Do we have to hook the ground wire to the switch box each time before joining them to a sword putting them in a pigtail to tie them together?

@user-mr9sj1do4h 11 ай бұрын

Switch not sword
