Installing switches should be done by a licensed professional, as it requires an installation of a fixture in a spot with no existing power supply.
An electrician will bring the power to the location and terminate the switch.
Procedure:
- Turn Off the Power. Turn off the power to the switch circuit by switching off the circuit breaker in your home's service panel (breaker box)
- Test for Power
- Remove the Old Switch
- Inspect and Disconnect the Switch Wiring
- Connect the New Single-Pole Switch
- Complete the Job
