    Very strange that you didn't show the disconnecting of the black and white wires that power the ballast. At 6:12 is a clear view of the white wire nut with three wires going to it, one of which goes to the ballast. At 6:16 is a view that shows the white wire nut still attached, but miraculously the white wire to the ballast is no longer connected to it and you don't mention it. At this point you go into detail about removing the four wire nuts that connect to the output of the ballast, but by failing to mention that you need to disconnect the white and black wires that power the ballast, I'm afraid that some folks might leave the ballast powered. Then later at 16:07 when you just push the unused ballast wires into the junction box with their exposed ends, it is quite possible to create a short circuit if the person following this video didn't grasp that they needed to disconnect the ballast's white and black wires. I really think you need to update this video accordingly because it is unsafe to do this in the way that you have shown it.

    • @charlietv625
      @charlietv625  4 роки тому +2

      There’s nothing strange here, I specifically said “ once you separate all of the wires coming out of the ballast, you put them aside because you won’t be using them” one should not only watch the video but also listen to the step by step, my instructions are very clear. I’m sorry that you’re having a hard time with it, almost everyone else found the video very clear and easy to follow, no need to update it.

      @@charlietv625 Very good Video Charlie Thanks!. But I do agree with the comment above. I just completed the work based on your video but if it weren't for the comment above I would have missed disconnecting the additional wires powering the ballast. You are right, you did mention removing all the wire nuts but in the following video shot, it only showed the wire nuts disconnected from the red and blue wires. Nevertheless, great video and appreciate it

      You may have attention deficit. The guy in the video clearly says to undo all the wire nuts and then he cuts over after this is done and shows all the wires (including the black and white) coming out of the ballast disconnected.

    Good instruction. However, i would like to make a comment on the unused wires. You should clip off the bare copper section of the unused wires and then cover the cut end with an electrical tape for extra protection even if they do not have power.

  • @colinmoore68

    • @nghiaho535

  • @mikosfabersunne
    @mikosfabersunne 4 роки тому +6

    Very clear and easy to understand. However as shown, technically it violates the National Electrical Code (NEC). Connecting a conductor whose sheath is a color other than white, gray or tripled-striped white to the white wire (referred to as a "grounded neutral") is not permitted by the code, even though electrically it will work fine. (The grounded neutral is current-carrying; it's NOT the same as the "equipment ground", which does not normally carry current.) The idea is to make it obvious which conductor is the grounded neutral by restricting the color to either white, gray or triple-striped white. Alternatively, one can draw a single length of white-colored conductor into the armored cable sheath by attaching it at one end to the blue-colored conductor and pulling it through to the other end. I'd suggest doing the same with the black conductor, and use a conductor size of 14 AWG for each. One can use a fish-tape to do the pulling instead.

    @LongHuynh-hc2fm 2 роки тому +1

    I finally done my first one following this video. For the most part the color wires are the same (blue/red) but the ones coming out of the ballast are different (pink, green, yellow etc) so it doesn't matter, i just separate and put aside as the video. The hardest part i found is my blue and red wires are a lot more delicate than what was shown in the video, they not solid copper inside. They are made of those stupid multi this strip of fiber copper if that makes sense. So i kept cut through them and have to get more and more precise when i strip them to connect to the new LED light wires. I think i spent too much time on stripping the blue and red wires, the rest were straight forward like in the video. DO allow about 30mins or so for the first one for learnings like mentioned. Honestly if you can just buy a new set of black/white wires and push that down into the socket and get rid of the little blue and white wires, I think that's actually the safest and easiest way, although a bit more costly.

    @rodt7124 2 роки тому +1

    Very good video on converting from CFL and the process is 100%. However, mine is a little rougher most likely same with others. I have tons of blown in insulation to deal with, and the original builder contractors cut the wires very short (about 1 inch) in the junction box and the can. Getting to the wires to strip them and put wire nuts on is almost impossible. It is a wrestling match and not an easy job to do given sloppy original install. But your procedure is dead on.

    • @aaronucsd
      @aaronucsd 2 роки тому

    I'm kind of new to doing electrical around the house, but shouldn't you hit the breaker and kill power for the circuit and not just turn off the light switch?

    • @charlietv625
      @charlietv625  4 роки тому +1

      If your light switch works properly, meaning when you switch it off the lights go out then your switch is doing exactly what the breaker will do, but if you feel safer switching off the breaker, then you should, specially if you have children that might accidentally switch the lights on while you’re working on them.

Same thing as far as the black wire that was in with the other two large black wires twisted together. In other words, you didn't show them being disconnected from the large twist nuts.If you had shown this in your video, I think everyone would understand why theres no power at the loose wire coming from the ballasts. Still a great video though.

    yes, well, by changing your ceiling lights, there is a chandelier next to it with three cups ? When do you turn on the light ? I would like to know if the chandelier also turns on at the same time with your LED ceiling lights and when you turn off your ceiling lights does the chandelier also turn off ? I would like to know if the chandelier also goes out at the same time as the new ceiling lights please thank you. So, well would it be nice to re-shoot the video to show it to me please ? Thanks.

      the chandelier is on a different light switch, it’s completely independent of the recessed LED lights

      Hello, well okay. The candlesticks walk apart??? And then I would like to know why do you change the old ceiling lights recessed by LEDs??? And then the ceiling lamps compact fluorescent bulbs and the compact fluorescent bulbs are we still making them??? See you soon.

    You only need two wires, one blue and one red ,from the light fixture to the switch/power wires? Why did you use 4?

    • @charlietv625
      @charlietv625  Рік тому +1

      doubling up on the wires makes makes for a better electrical current, you can use one if you like, but since they’re there, why not use it
