Replacing an outdoor lighting fixture with a motion activated spotlight can conserve energy and increase home security.
Step 10: Connect the wires together. Slide a wire nut over each pair of wires, and twist the wires from the house to the matching color wire on the fixture. Connect white wire to white, black wire to black or as indicated by the instructions. Screw wire nuts tight onto the twisted wires. Wrap electrical tape around the bottom of each nut if you are at all uncertain that they are tight enough.
Connect the wires together with wire nuts.
Warning! Electricity is inherently dangerous. If you are installing a motion sensor light in an area where there is currently no outdoor light, you’ll need to contact an electrician to wire the fixture for you. We do not recommend that you attempt to do this wiring yourself. If you are uncertain about any stage of this installation or if you experience any problems, call an electrician.
