Replacing the pull chain lights in my basement with a light and switch for each light. How do I add the switch?
We have to assume all the lights in the basement are on one line and all shut off through the same switch, currently. The ideal situation would be that each of the pull chain lights would be mounted on a metal octagon box. You will need a romex connector for each box, which must be mounted in one of the unused holes and tightened, after the light has been removed and the electricity shut down. Unless this is the last light on the line, there will be six wires in the box, two black, two white and two bare, (ground) wires. You must install your switch wherever it is going to be and run at least a 14-2/wgrd. wire from your switch to the light. Pull approx. 3" of wire into the box through the new romex connector you just installed. It's your choice as to whether you strip the wires before insertion into the box or after. Once you have the wires in the box you attach the two white wires that were originally in the box together with the white wire from the light with a good wire nut. Good and tight. Then attach the new black wire to the two black wires, with a good wire nut and the last wire, the one from the light, goes to the last white wire. That way, the light is switched but the power continues on through the box to the next light. The switch hooks up standard, one wire to each screw with the ground wire to the green screw. Install covers and you're set.
