Great job my friend
FYI, There was a socket as you can see it at the back of the old trim.. All you had to do is detach it from the old trim by pressing the springs on the side of the socket. You never want to cut the socket off unless you have to...
I saw that too. I was wondering why he said there was no socket when he just removed the light bulb from it. There are black springs on the socket that needed to be squeezed to separate the trim from the socket. He just made this that much more difficult.
Very informative. Thank you
Thank you.
I really like your videos
Thank you.!
Thank you sir
Do you not install the ground?
technically, the grounding conductor should be connected to it (NEC 2011 250.148(C)). However, if you've already installed the fixture without bonding it, it's not likely to cause a problem. If the fixture itself is properly grounded, and the canopy completely covers the box. It's not likely anybody will ever come into contact with the box itself during normal operation, and so the danger is relatively low.
In most cases, the box and fixture become bonded when the fixture is installed. As long as one of the two are grounded, there shouldn't be a problem. Code bodies and safety experts say to bond both the fixture and the box, because there's no way for them to be sure that a fixture will properly bond during installation. The fixture design likely is not governed by the same code body that governs the installation of the box, and the installation of said fixture may be completed by an untrained person. So the code body calls for everything to be grounded, to try and limit the potential dangers. They also want to avoid the situation where the continuity of the grounding conductor can be interrupted by the removal of a device or fixture (NEC 250.148(B)).
@@LegacyHandyman thanks for the reply. I just installed these. My cans did not have a hole for the grounding wire. I drilled a hole in the can and connected the ground as stated by the instructions. Was just curious as I don't know a lot about electrical work.
@@LegacyHandyman Thank you for the video. Our new led lights were installed the way you did it (stripping and splicing the two wires together and no green/ground wire). Unlike yours, our new led lights had no green/ground wire. How can we know if the lights are grounded? How do we know if the “grounding conductor is connected to it”? And what does “bonded” mean?
Actually a solution
