Stunning Wiring Two Led Lights To One Switch Light For 2

The image to the right shows an example. Wiring two switches for two lights here two switches are wired in the same box to control two separate lights. To wire this circuit in this manner you will need to run a 14 3 between the two light boxes. The source is at the switch box and a 2 wire cable is run to each light. This diagram shows the additional cable connected to an existing ceiling rose. Connect the black wire from the switch to the black wire from the first light and the black wire coming from the second light. This will allow you to connect the first light as you described above and to run this additional light from the same switch by utilizing the red conductor in the 3 wire as the switched conductor and the black wire as the continuous hot wire. Secure a screw nut to the ends of each one. One source is spliced to each switch with a pigtail to power the two lights. Using the pliers to bend the ends connect the wires to the switch.

To wire this circuit in this manner you will need to run a 14 3 between the two light boxes. Tuck the wires into the junction box and then. The new cable here is labelled light 2. The source is at the switch box and a 2 wire cable is run to each light. Secure a screw nut to the ends of each one. On the last fixture lead the outgoing wire down the wall to the junction box for the light switches allowing an additional 8 inches of wire. Connect the black wire from the switch to the black wire from the first light and the black wire coming from the second light. A two way light switch can also be used in in place of a one way light switch in this instance the red wire from the feed cable is connected to the common c terminal and the red wire going to the light is connected to the l1 terminal. Strip of an inch off of the end of this wire. Run your cable from the first light to the second light.

One source is spliced to each switch with a pigtail to power the two lights. If you are using a plastic switch the earth wires will need to be connected to the terminal in the terminal box as shown above because there are no earth terminals on plastic switches. If you ve mounted two switches in the same electrical box prepare two black wires. Finally the last led connection goes from the negative of the led to the negative output of the constant current driver creating a continuous loop or daisy chain. Secure a screw nut to the ends of each one. Twist the ground wires from both ends together and fasten with a wire nut. Do this for each light fixture. Connect the black wire from the power supply to the white wire of the cable connected to the switch. To wire this circuit in this manner you will need to run a 14 3 between the two light boxes. On the last fixture lead the outgoing wire down the wall to the junction box for the light switches allowing an additional 8 inches of wire.

Wrap a piece of black electrical tape around each end of this white wire to indicate that it is a hot wire rather than a neutral wire. Leave the black wire leading to the first switch alone for now. Finally the last led connection goes from the negative of the led to the negative output of the constant current driver creating a continuous loop or daisy chain. You can do this light switch wiring in one of two ways. How to add one or more additional lights so that all are operated from the same switch. To wire this circuit in this manner you will need to run a 14 3 between the two light boxes. Now twist that wire and the black wire from the source together and fasten with a second wire nut. This will allow you to connect the first light as you described above and to run this additional light from the same switch by utilizing the red conductor in the 3 wire as the switched conductor and the black wire as the continuous hot wire. To wire a series circuit like the one shown the positive output from the driver connects to the positive of the first led and from that led a connection is made from the negative to the positive of the second led and so on until the last led in the circuit. Connect the black wire from the power supply to the white wire of the cable connected to the switch.

The image to the right shows an example. The new cable here is labelled light 2. The other way to wire multiple lights to one switch is to connect all of them directly to the switch in a home run configuration. On the last fixture lead the outgoing wire down the wall to the junction box for the light switches allowing an additional 8 inches of wire. Finally the last led connection goes from the negative of the led to the negative output of the constant current driver creating a continuous loop or daisy chain. If you are using a plastic switch the earth wires will need to be connected to the terminal in the terminal box as shown above because there are no earth terminals on plastic switches. A two way light switch can also be used in in place of a one way light switch in this instance the red wire from the feed cable is connected to the common c terminal and the red wire going to the light is connected to the l1 terminal. Using the pliers to bend the ends connect the wires to the switch. To add a second light which is switched with the first one the switched line neutral and earth need to be extended to the second light. This diagram shows the additional cable connected to an existing ceiling rose.
