Hi,
I found the perfect lighting for a room I'm making over......only problem....it's a lamp. I can just convert it by splicing the wire right? I don't have it yet, but it has a good solid square base that I am going to have to drill a hole through to attach it to the ceiling. I should still be able to easily distinguish the hot wire right? Is it the one on the side of the larger prong?
Also...what do I do about the ground wire, since I'm sure the current fixture has one, but the lamp will not.
I've installed many ceiling fixtures, but never with a lamp!
I'm signing off for the night, and hope to wake up to some good advice and the go ahead to run out and get the lamp.....big sale tomorrow!
Thanks!
