Step-by-step written guide
- Turn off power at the breaker and verify the circuit is dead with a tester before touching wires.
- Photograph the existing wiring and label conductors so the replacement can match the original layout.
- Remove the old device or fixture carefully, keeping wire nuts, mounting screws, and grounding hardware organized.
- Connect the new device using the manufacturer's instructions, secure all grounds, and tuck wires neatly into the box.
- Restore power, test operation, and stop immediately if you see heat, arcing, smoke, or unexplained voltage.
Safety note
Stop and call a licensed professional when the work involves gas, service-panel wiring, structural changes, active leaks inside walls, mold, asbestos, or anything outside your comfort level.
