You ve completed wiring the light switch and the outside light together.
Wiring new porch light.
For added security program the lights to stay on until dawn.
Such switches have override options for turning the light on and off at will.
Attach one wire at the light end to the white wire of the light by twisting them together with a wire nut and the other wire to the black wire of the light by twisting them together with a wire nut.
Turn the power back on and test the light switch combination.
If you don t have an outdoor box to tap in to consider installing one on your house.
Take a pencil and mark where you want to add the porch light.
Step 1 mark the area where the light will be added.
It incorporates a combination light switch outlet photo 11.
In our project we run a line from an existing outdoor outlet on the house to a light and receptacle at the edge of a garden path.
For convenience and security wire porch lights with a programmable switch.
Set them to go on at dusk and off at bedtime.
You should locate the junction box for the porch and place the light as close as you can to it so that you have less wire to run to the new light.
