Power coming into the box powering all 3 switches. A 12/2 or 14/2 wire going to each light from each switch depending on the size power wire you are using. They must be the same size wire. All the whites tied together and pushed back in the box. All the grounds tied together with a long jumper wire going to the ground screw of each switch. The black power wire connected to all three switches (bottom screw) with a long jumper wire. The black wires from each light connected to the 3 individual switches (top screw).

Do wire nuts have to be inside junction box when installing porch lights?

The wire nuts do not have to be inside the junction box. They must, however, be as tight as possible to keep moisture from inside the light fixture.


Have 120 volts going to outlets and lights but yet the plugs and lights don't work?

Check with a reliable voltmeter on the wire into outlets. If no power then it's disconnected in a junction box somewhere.


How can I wire multiple lights to one switch efficiently and safely?

To wire multiple lights to one switch efficiently and safely, you can connect the lights in parallel using a junction box. Run a cable from the switch to the first light, then connect additional cables from that light to the others. Make sure to use the appropriate gauge wire for the load and follow all electrical codes and safety precautions.


How can I wire multiple outlets and lights on the same circuit?

To wire multiple outlets and lights on the same circuit, you can connect them in parallel using a junction box. Run a main wire from the circuit breaker to the first outlet, then connect additional outlets and lights in parallel to the first one. Make sure to follow local electrical codes and use proper wiring techniques to ensure safety.

Can copper wire be used for thermocouple extention?

No. A thermocouple is made from two dissimilar wires. At the junction of these two wires, an electrical signal is generated that is measured in millivolts. If you insert another type of wire, such as copper, then you have introduced another electrical junction. Your signal will be (millivolt from junction 1 + millivolt from junction 2). <><><> Maybe. A thermocouple measures the temperature difference between the sensing junction (where the two different metal wires meet) and the other end of the wire, the reference junction. If you extend a thermocouple with copper wire, you will measure the temperature difference between the junction and the location where the copper extension is spliced on. If the copper splice is the same temperature as the reference junction, or if you can measure the temperature at the splice, then it will be fine. In general, it is better to run the thermocouple wire to the reference junction.


How can I safely install outdoor wire for lights in my backyard?

To safely install outdoor wire for lights in your backyard, follow these steps: Use outdoor-rated wire that is suitable for the environment. Dig a trench at least 18 inches deep to bury the wire. Use waterproof connectors and junction boxes to protect the wire connections. Keep the wire away from water sources and sharp objects. Test the wire before burying it to ensure it is working properly. Consider hiring a professional electrician for complex installations.


Do you need to use TC extension wire to connect a thermocouple or can you use shielded cable?

You must use thermocouple wire (of the same type as the thermocouple) to extend the circuit. If you switch to a different wire the point of connection between the two becomes a thermocouple junction itself, and the resulting voltage from that junction will skew your reading. You can use any wire to extend a thermocouple connection if you know the temperature of the junction where the thermocouple wire ends--this becomes the reference junction.


How do you extend an 240v wire circuit 2 feet longer?

If you do not add a junction box it looks like new wire all the way from the old junction box with new wire that is longer. It's a tough place to be.


How do you wire a junction box?

To wire a junction box, first turn off the power to the circuit. Then, strip the insulation from the wires, connect the matching colors together using wire nuts, and secure the connections with electrical tape. Finally, place the wires back into the junction box and secure the box cover.
