Q:i already tried wiring this light, but it didn't work. I always thought black wire to black, white to white and ground to ground. i connected the light fixture black wire to the three black wires (as shown in image) and the light fixture white wire to the three white wires, and connected ground wires together.when i flipped on the breaker, the light came on with the switch on off and the breaker tripped. i'm assuming this is wrong and i provided an image as i see in my ceiling mount. Can somebody kindly direct me how to properly connect the light fixture to these wires. thanks!

This should have worked. Any chance you have one of the black wires touching the side of the box or one of the white or ground wires? If the fixture that was removed worked before the new one should work now. Also check that one of the screws holding the fixture didn't touch one of the black wires when you tightened it. .

Q:I have 16 gauge speaker wire, but i need a lower gauge. instead of spending money and buying a lower gauge can i double this wire up and have that make it a lower gauge? so i would have 2 negative and 2 positive wires going into the terminal.

Doubling the wire will not make it 8 gauge. If you're running this wire from the head unit to the speakers, or from an amp to the speakers, 16g will be sufficient. If the wire is from an amp to a sub, a larger wire would be a good idea, but not a requirement. If you're trying to use this wire for the power and ground connections on the amp, you should purchase the proper wiring kit for amp installation.

Q:i need to connect a new bathroom light/fan combo to existing wiring. Existing wiring is black/white/red/copper. The new fixture wiring is black/blue/white/white. Thanks

black on black should be fan, red on blue should be light and white on white the second white should go with the other whites they probably are independent commons but can go together on the same common. good luck!

Q:i want to install a new light in a old house.the problem is that there are three black wires coming out of he ceilng.the old light fixture has two black wires. two ceiling wires are connected to one fixture wire and the other ceiling wire i connected to he other fixture wire.i dont know which is the hot wire and which is the comon wire.also the new light has a ground wire ,2 blue wires and 2 white wires but, there is no ground wire coming out of the box. please help

First find a ground. Either copper water line or a wireyou know is grounded. You can put a light bulb in a series so you touch it to the hot wire on your ceiling the light comes on. I would just run the ground wire are up to the ceiling and tap it quickly on each individual ceiling wire. The ones that make a spark are hot wires. Good luck .
