hi,
Replacing an original fixture in a 1997 home and found this. No junction box and a pipe less than an inch from the drywall. Also the end of other wire...
Not much experience with electrical work but it seems that for this to be done correctly I need to install a junction box and figure out what to do with the additional wiring, correct? Would an oldwork electrical box work? The new fixture isn’t more than 10 pounds.
Suggestions?
Thanks.
