How to Wire a Halogen Lamp
- 1). Make sure the power is off.
- 2). Remove about 6 inches of sheathing from the electrical cord protruding from the electrical box in the wall or ceiling. Cut around the sheathing with a utility knife, being careful not to cut into the wires inside. Pull the sheathing off with pliers and separate the wires.
- 3). Use the splicing tool to remove about 1/2 inch from the ends of the black and white wires.
- 4). Hold the white wires from the box and the light fixture together and twist them clockwise with pliers. When they are secure, screw on a wire nut. Repeat with the black wires.
- 5). Twist the bare, or ground, wires together. Hook these around the ground nut in the electrical box, if it is metal, and tighten the nut with a screwdriver.
- 6). Mount the fixture to the box using the adaptor and screws that came with the fixture.
