How do you wire a two pole lamp holder with a pull chain when you have four wires coming out of the wall?

Assuming the wires are 2 blacks and 2 whites, and assuming one set provides power and the other set continues the circuit downline, you connect both black wires to the black wire of the lamp holder and connect both white wires to the white wire of the lamp holder. Turn the circuit off before making these connections.


How do you wire a tri-light bulb table lamp with 3 wire rotary switch?

If the tri-light needs a new lamp holder try any reputable lighting house store. These types of retailers have all of the parts that you need to repair any lamp configurations. The new switch will have a rotary switch built into it just like the lamp had when it was new. There are only two wires to connect to it. Don't disconnect the old one until you have the new one and just put the wires on the same terminals as the they are wires on the old switch.


Can I use 18 AWG speaker wire to rewire a lamp?

No! Most lamp cords are made with 18 guage wire, some speaker wire is made with 18 guage wire too but the insualtion of the wire is very different. Both wires have insulation for their intended uses. Supplying a lamp with line voltage and supplying a speaker with low voltage are very different. The speaker wire is not meant to carry line voltage and may overheat and or melt.
