ceiling fan wiring (How to?)?
Hello,
I’m trying to replace my old ceiling fan with a new one but i can’t seem to figure out the wiring.
I have three wires coming out of the ceiling:
1) Two white ones that were connected together when the old ceiling fan was installed
2) A grey wire
I have four wires in the new fan:
1) Black
2) Black and White (would connect with the black based on the instructions)
3) Green Grounding
4) White
Can you help me figure out the connections. Thanks!
I wish contractors followed the wiring / building codes.
The white wires are neutral wires that return the circuit back to the panel.
Grey? where in the world did that come from BUT I have to assume that it’s the hot wire from the panel.
Black & black with the white tracer to your grey wire.
White to the white &
if at all possiable put a screw in the box with the green wire or at least wrap it around the screw from the horseshoe that you are putting in the box.
Be sure that the switch is off. If it’s wired properly there will be no hot wire in the ceiling box. The hot is open at the switch. That’s why the light doesn’t turn on. Follow me??
