I am installing a light fixture in the kitchen. How do I wire it?
The light fixture has:
- 2 light bulb sockets
- 2 black wires (one coming out of each socket)
- 2 white wires (one coming out of each socket)
- A bare metal ground wire
My junction box in the roof has:
- 2 black wires
- 2 white wires
- 1 red wire
- 1 ground wire
I tried following wiring and it didn't work when I turned the switch on:
- First black from fixture to first black from box
- Second black from fixture to second black from box
- First white from fixture to first white from box
- Second white from fixture to second white from box
- Ground from fixture to ground from box
- Left red disconnected and covered it with cap.
