Connecting light switch wires is an essential electrical task that involves joining the wires of a light switch to the wires of a light fixture or electrical outlet. Proper connection ensures the safe and effective operation of the lighting system.
Before connecting any wires, it’s crucial to turn off the power supply at the breaker panel to prevent electrical shock. Once the power is off, identify the wires involved in the connection. Typically, there will be a black wire (hot wire), a white wire (neutral wire), and a bare copper or green wire (ground wire).
