What else can I help you with?
If a light switch that is connected to an outlet which is burnt out and when you replaced the outlet it burnt out within two weeks so how do you change the switch to operate recessed ceiling light?
you must have to much of a load on the outlet or didnt tighten the screws holding the wires tight enough , it should not go out that quickly. if you want to wire it for recess you first have to check if you can get to the location in the attic above the switch. and you need to be able to fish a wire down to the switch up to the recesed lite. which sometimes is not the easiest job to do , better to just call in the electrician for this job
How do you hook up wire from ansul system to shunt trip breaker?
You would need to take the "input" wire for the shunt trip breaker to an electrical switch (not alarm initiating switch, which are DC voltage rated) within the Automan unit and connect to the "Common" connection and the "return", the wire to the actual shunt circuit of the breaker, from the "Normally Open" connection of the switch. When the unit activates, the switch will be placed into "Closed" position, therefore completing the circuit and activating the shunt coil.
Is it possible to run power from a three way switch to install an outlet?
Yes you just have to "steal" power from the switch. Do this by running a pigtail wire from the hot of the switch to the hot wire of the plug. Make sure you do this before the switch or you will end up with your outlet being switched as well.

How do you control 2 lamps with two way switch?
A 3way switch at each location is what you use, but it must be wired properly to work. You must have incoming power at one switch location and no power at the other location. The other location has the wire going up to the light. You then need a 3 conducted wire such as 12/3 or 14/3 running between the switches. Use the same size wire you used to power the switch and top up to the light. You then connect the black power wire at one location to the black screw on the switch, and at the other location you connect the black wire going to the light to the black screw on that switch. At each location tie the whites together under a wire nut and shove that back in the box. Tie the grounds together and connect that to the ground screw at each switch. At each location you will now have the black and red wire from the wire you ran between the switches left. Those are called travelers. Connect those wires to the remaining 2 screws left on the switches at each location. Does not mater which you connect to which screw. Assuming no other wires are involved this is how you wire it.
How do you wire an up down switch?
To wire an up-down switch, you would typically connect the power source to one terminal of the switch and the load (such as a motor) to the other terminal. When the switch is in the up position, it sends power to the load to move it in one direction. When the switch is in the down position, it reverses the polarity of the power to the load to move it in the opposite direction. Make sure to follow the wiring diagram provided with the switch to ensure proper installation.
How do you wire up a light switch in a home electrical system?
To wire up a light switch in a home electrical system, you need to first turn off the power to the circuit. Then, connect the black wire from the power source to the black wire on the switch, and the white wire from the power source to the white wire on the switch. Finally, connect the black wire from the light fixture to the other terminal on the switch. Make sure to secure all connections properly and test the switch before turning the power back on.

Simply follow the manufacturer's instructions for installation to set up the switch without the need for a neutral wire.
How do you hook up a light switch?
To hook up a light switch, first turn off the power to the circuit. Then, connect the black wire from the switch to the black wire from the power source, and the white wire to the white wire. Finally, connect the ground wire to the green screw on the switch. Secure the switch in place and turn the power back on to test the connection.
How do you wire up a 3-way switch?

When wiring a wall switch which color wire goes on the common terminal screws?
A typical switch doesn't have a Common screw in the strictest sense, it just has two screws which are each side of the switch. You probably have a a 3-way switch. If you are hooking up a 3-way switch as a normal switch, then connect the Black (Hot) wire to the common and the load to the side of the switch that makes UP the on direction and DOWN is off and doesn't get connected. You can determine for sure if you have a 3-way switch because the word ON and OFF don't appear on the toggle.
