LED lighting is a newer way to provide light to various places, such as under a kitchen cabinet. This type of light is typically more energy efficient than a standard incandescent light. Depending on how your cabinets are built the lights are designed to have a low profile so they cannot be seen under the cabinet. Installing LED lights can be done by first deciding where to place the LED light assembly.
Instructions
1
Mark the placement for the LED lights so that so you know where the electrical wiring needs to be located.
2
Find a place for the electrical source for the LED lights. The electrical source is typically located within a kitchen cabinet.
3
Drill small pilot holes in the underside of the cabinet to see where the wiring will need to go.
4
Locate a circuit to use for the LED lighting on your home's junction or circuit box.
5
Turn off the circuit that is going to be used for the LED lighting.
6
Feed the electrical wire from your basement junction or circuit box, through the floor, up to the cabinet.
7
Connect the electrical wire from the lighting source to the LED lighting. Refer to the LED lighting instructions to properly connect the electrical wiring.
8
Connect the ground wires from the electrical source for the LED lights to the switch box.
9
Turn on the circuit from the junction box and test the lighting by turning the light switch to the "on" position.
