The neatest way of doing it is to take the wire across the attic side of the ceiling. If there is a floor above, then there is a bit of carpentry involved. Determine which way the ceiling joists run and open a hole between them and fish the wire to the new location where it is needed. There is also in the market place a product called Wiremold. It is a surface conduit system.

A jumper wire should be used to bridge the electrical ground across?

Do you need 3-wire romex to feed bedroom ceiling box by electrical code?
No, you can feed it with a 2 wire Romex + ground. It depends on what is mounted on the ceiling. If it is just a light all you need is 2 wire + ground Romex. However if it is a fan/light and you want to control each one independant of the other you will need to use 3 wire Romex + ground. This is of course if you have 2 seperate switches. You would then connect the red wire to the blue light wire and the black wire to the black fan wire. If you use 2 wire Romex just connect the blue and black fan/light wire to the black wire in the ceiling box.
How do you install a ceiling fan to plug into a wall outlet and should you use two or three strand electrical cord and which strand on the cord connects to which fan wires?
The neutral wire will have writing or ribs on it and connects to the white wire. The smooth wire is hot and connects to the black wire. Use 3 strand wire in size AWG # 16. If the fan has a light it will have a blue wire. Connect that blue wire to the black wire.
In an IEC-320 plug which wire carries electrical voltage?
the hot wire carries the electrical voltage
How does an electric generator generate an electric current The generator?
The rotor turns (rotates) causing magnetic fields to move across a coil of wire. This induces an electrical current in the wires of the coil.
What do you use to connect the electrical wires when fitting a ceiling fan or ceiling light?
Wire nuts

What electrical wire goes with the red and black in your ceiling?
There is not enough information to answer this question.
Device that produces current by moving a magnetic field across a wire?
An electrical generator does that.
Do you join brown electrical wire to red electrical wire and blue electrical wire to black electrical wire?
yes

How do you wire electric fans?
no sparking fanThe white wire from the fan to the white wire from the ceiling get wire nutted together.The black and blue wire from the fan go to the black wire from the ceiling and all 3 get wire nutted together. Lastly the green wire from the fan and the bare copper wire from the ceiling get wire nutted together. 90% of fans are wired this way.
Who developed a machine that allowed sound waves to travel across a wire as an electrical current?
Alexander Grahm Bell
Why is a resistor called so?
I resistor is called so because it provides electrical resistance (measured in ohms). Electrical resistance describes how an electrical conductor (a wire) opposes the flow of an electrical current (flow of electrons). To overcome this opposition a voltage (a energy) must dropped (used) across the conductor (wire).
Updating old 3-way switches that have old wire rope?
Just change the switch, The type of wire has no bearing. The insulation will be brittle. If needed wrap the ends in the box with electrical tape. Only other solution is replacing the wire which means ripping out the wall and ceiling to get to the wire.
Need hunter fan remote directions?
I have a Hunter ceiling fan that is operate's by remote only, I have a red wire coming out of the ceiling where do I hook that wire ?
What do you call an electrical wire that is not insulated or covered?
The electrical terminology of a wire with no insulation on it is a bare wire.
