How to Make a Pendant Light Plug Into a Wall Outlet

A pendant --hanging --The lights are designed for hardConnect to the ceiling electric box so you can control it with a wall switch.If you want to hang the light on the hook, hang it on your favorite chair or table, and then plug it into a wall socket, you have to splice a plug on it.For this purpose, you can buy a plug connected to the wire, or you can simply cut off the plug and wire length from the castoff device.The plug should be three-Or polarization--One is wider than the other.By turning off the circuit breaker, removing the canopy to uncover the electric box and separate the wires, disconnect the light of the circuit connected to it.Take the light down.Remove the light bulb and put it on the table.Disconnect the canopy from the chain and slide the canopy up and down to the end of the wire.Discard or save it to another project.Before the wire enters the sheath that extends to the lamp, use the wire snip device to cut the wire back to about 2 inch of the position.Remove 1/2 of the insulation from each wire using a wire stripping clamp.You should see two wires.-Black and White--There may also be bare or ground wires coated with green insulation.If the light has a ground wire, you need to connect it to three-prong plug.Otherwise, you can use two-Polarized plug.If necessary, prepare the cable connected to the plug by stripping the insulation from the end.If the plug has three spires, you will see the black, white and green wires inside the sheath.If it\'s a two-Prong, polarized plug, you will only see two wires, they will be coated with insulation separately.The insulation on the neutral line is either ribbed or white.There is no difference in insulation on hot wire.Slide a 4-Inch length of heatShrink the pipe far enough along the insert line to make it out of the way.After the connection is completed, it will cover the joint.Crimp a heat-Use pliers to shrink the butt joint to the end of each wire to secure the curl.Use the male head connector on the wire connected to the plug, and use the male head connector on the wire connected to the lamp.Push the connector together and when you are sure the connection is safe, heat the shrink package to the highest temperature with a hair dryer.Keep hot air on the connectors until you actually see them shrink.Let the connector cool before continuing.Slide the pipe along the rope and install it on the connection.Shrink it with a hair dryer, just like a shrink connector.Hang the light on the hook on the wall or ceiling and plug it into the nearest socket.
