Wiring Up Lights To Houses
Carol has a question about wiring lights on a layout and is hoping some kind reader will give some advice:
“I have purchased street lights, outside house lights and lights that are put inside houses, close to the floor. NOW … how do I wire them to work (safely)?? “
Carol, it might be helpful for others if you used the green Comments link below to add some more details to your question. It is often hard for others to give a good answer without knowing all the facts – especially when safety is involved.
