Why Install Light Fixtures
Aside from the obvious lighting features, there are many benefits of installing light fixtures that we often underappreciated, some of which include:
Improved safety
A well-lit home or office is a safe home or office. Dark areas can be dangerous, as they can easily hide intruders or hazards.
Aesthetics
A well-lighted area looks more inviting than a dark one. This is why many businesses use light fixtures to improve the appearance of their premises.
Adds value to a property
Properly installed light fixtures can increase the value of your home or office.
4 THINGS YOU NEED TO CONSIDER WHEN CHOOSING A LIGHT FIXTURE
Light fixtures come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colors. Many different types of light fixtures can be used for different purposes. When choosing light fixtures, it is important to consider the following factors:
Size & Shape
The size and shape of the light fixture should be appropriate for the area you are lighting.
Color
The color of the light fixture should be appropriate for the area you are lighting and the type of light bulb you are using.
Purpose
A single room can be used for multiple purposes. You can use it to relax, work on your computer, make arts and crafts, or cook. The purpose of the light fixture should be taken into consideration before the installation process.
Light Bulb
Many different types of light bulbs can be used in light fixtures.
- Incandescent – An incandescent light bulb is a type of light bulb that uses electricity to heat a filament inside the bulb.
- Fluorescent – A fluorescent light bulb is a type of light bulb that uses electricity to produce ultraviolet light. This light is then converted into visible light by the phosphor coating on the inside of the bulb.
- LED – A LED (light-emitting diode) is a type of semiconductor that converts electricity into light.
These and others like a chandelier, recessed, and track lighting can be used in light fixtures.
When installing light fixtures, it is important to follow the manufacturer’s instructions. If you are not familiar with electrical work, it is best to hire a professional electrician to install the light fixture for you.

Why Should You Hire A Licensed Electrician To Install A Light Fixture?
Installing light fixtures isn’t as easy as it seems, especially if you’re not familiar with electrical wiring. It’s important to hire a licensed electrician to avoid any potential injuries and/or damage to your property.
Professionals have the necessary skills and knowledge to install light fixtures safely and properly. They also have the right tools and equipment to get the job done quickly and efficiently.
Some mistakes you can make when installing light fixtures include:
Incorrectly wiring the light fixture
In an electrical box, there are three wires – the black wires (hot), the white (neutral) wire, and the green (ground) wire. It’s important to connect wires to the right terminals. If you plan to DIY your light fixture, there’s a high possibility that you’ll make a mistake when wiring it. This can be extremely dangerous, as it can lead to electrical shocks or fires.
Repurposing an old fixture
If you’re trying to save money by repurposing an old light fixture, you could be putting yourself and your family at risk. Old fixtures may not meet current electrical code standards, which could lead to electrical hazards.
By then, the fixture ground wire, wire connector, and even the light switch might not work properly anymore. It’s always best to buy a new light fixture and have them installed by licensed electricians.
Changing a ceiling light fixture
Changing ceiling light fixtures is one of the trickiest jobs. You’ll need to know how to connect each part of it such as the ceiling wires, ceiling box, and light fixture.
Without any background as an electrician, changing a ceiling light fixture can be dangerous, as you could end up electrically shocking yourself. Call Assurance Electrical for your safety!
