Looking to add an outlet in my kitchen. I would like to add it next to a switch that controls my ceiling fan and put them in a box together. It looks as though the power comes to the fan first though as there is only one set of wires to the switch, using white as a hot back to the light. What I'm wondering is if there is some way to wire the outlet with the current wiring I have.
Even if there was power available, you can't add the receptacle. Kitchen receptacles can't be on the same circuit as lighting. They must be on dedicated 20 amp circuits.
It seems that a fuse has blown -- the fan still works but the lights dont come on - even with all new bulbs. I remember changing this once before but have lost the instructions. If someone can help me with this, I will sincerely appreciate it. -- where is it -- what do I remove to get to it
Hello. I am trying to update a bedroom switch from a single rocker 15amp 1 way switch. I have a [h1]Leviton 1755-W 15 Amp, 120 Volt, Decora Single-Pole, AC Combination Switch, Commercial Grade[/h1]switch that I am trying to connect. Behind the single switch is: 3 unjacketed copper wired, 3 black wires and 3 white wires...do I have correct type of switch? And if I do...how do I wire it. Full disclosure I did something dumb and pulled the wire nuts off the 2 pigtails of wires: the pigtail of 3 whites, I did not touch, but I think the 3 black wires were not pigtailed all together like the whites and I THINK had a pigtail of 3 black wires; 2 hot, 1 4 inch piece of black wire(not hot, I'm guessing with the purpose of wiring up to the previously installed single switch. Then there was 1 lone black which I think was natural ground. Any help is more than appreciated. I look led through the forums and found only 1 switch/3 light update to 3 separate switches/3 lights wiring instructions. Thanks for any input.
