In the absence of better information and without testing it I would say yes, connect the black to the yellow. When you make decisions like this, be very watchful (as you should always be) when turning on the power so you can quickly turn it off if something goes wrong.

How do you wire light fixture with three wires when there are two house wires?

CAN'T. Must have 3-wire w/ground. [First off, I want to admit that the wording of this answer is skewed. However, if you read the answer you will understand why. It is techinically correct in terms of the NEC. -TJNII] The idiot that wired my house did this. To add insult to injury he connected the hot to one circuit and the neutral to another. I was almost electrocuted because of it. Do it right or don't do it at all. Your negligence may kill someone.


What color do you get if you mix yellow and red together?

The color yellow can not be made, it is a primary color. Red, blue and yellow are the three primary colors, meaning no combination of colors can create them.


If your light fixture has a brown and blue and yellow-green wire and you think the yellow-green wire is the ground which of the brown and blue is neutral and power?

European electrical equipment, fittings and fixtures have wires coloured as follows:Brown for Hot (also known as "Line" in Europe)Blue for NeutralGreen/Yellow stripes for Ground (also known as "Earth")So it seems to me that your light fixture may have come from Europe.For more information see the Related Link below.As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed. Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energizedIF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.

Would this color combination look good in a small room Yellow ceiling brown carpet tan and white stripes on two walls one wall tan and one wall white?

Yes, the tan and white combo would go very well in a small room, the brown carpeting would "pull the room together" but the yellow ceiling could be trouble. If the yellow is a pale yellow and the ceiling very high, it might work. But to be safe, it would be better to use a white ceiling.
