Ceiling Fan Light Connection

This wiring diagram illustrates the connections for a ceiling fan and light with two switches a speed controller for the fan and a dimmer for the lights.

Ceiling fan light connection.

The basic idea is that your power supply line is feeding both switches. You may want to wear thick gloves to prevent yourself from getting cut on the copper. The source is at the switches and the input of each is spliced to the black source wire with a wire nut. Connect your white wires together and secure with wire nut.

After hooking up all the wires tuck them back in the bracket and put the faceplate up. Tuck the wires back into the box. Connecting the neutral wires will complete the circuit in your fan. Twist the copper ends together until they are securely connected to each other.

From the switches 3 wire cable runs to the ceiling outlet box. When completing your 4 wire ceiling fan switch wiring remember to connect the black wire to the unit s black and blue wires. Turn the power back on and test the fan. Ceiling fan connection light wired to light switch fan on off with pull chain the wiring diagram above is for typical installation wiring light is switched the fan is powered by a pull chain once you have found and identified all of the wires on your fan and in your electrical box you can get to work on connecting them.

Each switch then feeds either the fan black wire or light kit blue wire. All that s left at this point is to tie together all the ground wires and neutral wires respectively. You can also connect the blue wires or the blue to the black wire.
