How do you wire a 240 volt street light circuit?
A 240 volt street light circuit is wired in parallel connections. In the base of the street fixture an inline fuse is connected into the circuit that goes up to the fixture to protect the lamp head.
Can a single pole switch replace a starter in fluorescent lamps?
No, a switch is used to control the circuit voltage that is applied to the fixture for turning the fixture on and off. The starter in the fluorescent fixture is used to start the current flowing through the filaments in the fixture's tubes. After a specific time, the starter heats up the circuit is opened and the current then flows through the fluorescent tubes.
Can a single pole switch replace a starter in a tube light?
No. Starter comes in the circuit initially and then cuts off once the tube is on. If you use the switch, it wont be cut off automatically. If you want to use the switch manually then it technically possible to do so
Does code require a new bath vent fan to be on a dedicated circuit?
No, the bath vent fan does not need a designated circuit. If this is a new installation install a three wire cable to the fixture from a two gang switch box. Cover plates for two gang boxes can be bought with a blank on one side and a switch on the other. At some time in the future a lighted fan enclosure may be installed. This will allow the light and fans to be operated independently.
Is there a way to install a 277V light on a 120V circuit?
no ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stepdown transformer. More expensive than buying the correct light fixture. Y-THINK-Y
What is the formula to figure out how many plugs and lights you can put on a circuit?
This depends upon the circuit breaker capacity. You may never load a circuit to greater than 80% of it's capacity. So you may load up to 12 Amps on a 15 Amp circuit, and, 16 Amps on a 20 Amp circuit. The National Electrical Code requires you to calculate each receptacle at 180 VA. If the circuit is 120 volts and 15 amps, you would have 1800 VA, divide by 180 VA per receptacle, equals 10 receptacles per circuit (minus the wattage of each luminaire or light fixture added to the circuit, before dividing by the 180 VA). If the circuit is 120 volts and 20 amps, you would have 2400 VA, divide by 180 VA per receptacle, equals 13.333 receptacles per circuit (round down to 13 receptacles),(minus the wattage of each luminaire or light fixture added to the circuit, before dividing by the 180 VA).
How can I remove a light fixture?
To remove a light fixture, first turn off the power to the fixture at the circuit breaker. Then, remove the screws or bolts holding the fixture in place and disconnect the wires. Finally, carefully lower the fixture and remove it from the ceiling.

Disconnect the wires from the old fixture. Connect the wires of the new light fixture to the corresponding wires in the ceiling. Secure the new light fixture to the ceiling. Turn the power back on at the circuit breaker and test the new light.
What if the new light fixture has 2 black wires and no white wire?
If the new light fixture has 2 black wires and no white wire, it likely means that the fixture is designed to be connected to a circuit where the white wire has been designated as the hot wire instead of the black wire. Make sure to double check the wiring and consult a professional if you are unsure.
How do I properly install recessed lighting spring clips in my ceiling?
To properly install recessed lighting spring clips in your ceiling, follow these steps: Turn off the power to the lighting fixture at the circuit breaker. Insert the spring clips into the designated slots on the fixture. Push the clips up and outward until they snap into place securely. Position the fixture in the ceiling opening and push up until the clips engage with the ceiling. Test the fixture to ensure it is securely in place before turning the power back on. Remember to always follow the manufacturer's instructions for your specific lighting fixture.
What is the switch loop wiring diagram for a lighting circuit?
A switch loop wiring diagram for a lighting circuit involves connecting a switch to the power source and the light fixture in a loop configuration. The switch controls the flow of electricity to the light fixture.
