Black And White Wire Ceiling Light

Being the main hot wire the primary function of the black wire is to provide current to the fan s motor.

Black and white wire ceiling light.

Connect the white wires neutral wires from your fan and ceiling together. Lastly connect the blue wires together or the blue wire to the black wire for lights. I am very confused about this. Hook the neutral and ground wires first.

So in all there is three wires that were attached to the fan light fixture two black wires and one white. In this case consider a fan with green ground white neutral blue hot for the fan and black hot for lights wires. If you want to run both the light and fan on one switch twist the blue and black wire from the unit together. One of the black and white wires goes to the light fixture.

If your ceiling fan has four wires check their colors again. If the light can be turned on or off from switches at each. Remember that the hot black or red wire goes to the brass colored screw neutral white to the silver screw. Community answer interior ceiling lights usually have no ground wire connection unless there is a receptacle in addition to the socket.

This will allow you to add a light kit later on without having to rewire the fan. The black wire is the main hot wire which generally comes from the main circuit breaker. Connect the green wire to your household ground wire copper bare wire. For ceiling fans without lights follow the same step.

If you only have black wires in your box connect both the non white wires from the fan to the black wires in the box. I am sure it is the middle of the circuit wiring. The white wire of the ceiling fan is the main neutral for both the light fixture and the fan motor. There is one extra black wire the one that is with the white wire tied to the blacks that was attached to the fan wiring.

Then the red wire in your box goes to the non white wire on your ceiling fan which is often blue. The black wire goes to the bundle of black wires. This wire is always on so make sure that there is no current when dealing directly with this one to avoid any injury.
