An easy way to refresh a bathroom’s appearance is to change an aged, obsolete vanity light to a more stylish one. Given that the cable is already in place in the wall, it is also simple to do this project without calling an electrician. In most instances, it is merely a matter of removing several screws and disconnecting wires so that the old vanity light is removed and then the new mounting connected to the power source and the wall is reversed.
Turn off The Power
Ensure that you switch off both the breaker box and the light switch. It’s very important to be safe.
Remove The Existing Fixture.
First of all, remove the lightbulbs from the existing fixtures first. Then, using your drill, ensure that you remove the decorative plate from the mounting bracket. You will be able to see exposed wires from the wall. You need to untwist the wire connectors and separate the two wires. Be sure to remove the mounting plate.
Add A New Junction Box.
Once you remove the old fixture, you should check if there is a junction box. One benefit of these replacement tasks is that you can install a new junction box, suppose your house doesn’t have one, to provide additional safety.
Mount a new junction box inside the wall using a drill. Be sure to install the wiring for the new fixture once the junction box is firmly attached.
Add A Base Plate
After the junction box is mounted, you need to fix the base plate for the new lights. It has holes in it to let the cable move. If the base plate is mounted on the junction box, it is possible to move the circuit wires and put them according to the new lights’ design.
Link The Cable
Both wires should be wired to the connectors, assuming that the circuit is perfectly mounted next to the base plate. Most wires are attached and placed in the box.
Attach A New Fixture
Connect the mounting bracket to the attachment. Connect the new shades to the mount. Screw incompatible light bulbs – ensure that the bulb wattage matches the fixture wattage. This detail is in the definition of a commodity.
Turn The Switch
When the new light is fully connected, the wall switch will be turned off. Switch off the disconnector and make sure it stays on until the light returns for at least ten seconds. Check the light wall switch light.
In this blog post, I have outlined that it is an easy way to refresh a bathroom’s appearance by changing out an aged, obsolete vanity light to a more stylish fixture. Additionally, the cable in the wall is already formed and functioning, so it doesn’t necessitate hiring an electrician. Change your old vanity light at the time of natural light dips or when you want to change its style. It is quick and easy once the blueprint is decided–all you need are your ladder and drill!
