Your location says US but black wire with white stripe is unusual. What is your location? Is it cable or conduit going to the box?`How many cables to the box?

If the black conductor with white stripe some case it can be a switch loop but before we get further how many cables are comming in the box each cable will have a pairs of conductors { black and white } once I know the numbers we can go from there or take a photo of it and post it up here we will go from there as well.
Merci,
