Home lighting has become an essential part of home design – today it is no longer just a simple light bulb but large, designed lighting fixtures.
Which add a lot to the lighting of the house but require more complexity in installation. The following guide will explain everything you need to know about lighting for the house
And living room lighting, when to use ladders and how to do it correctly!
Types of lighting
There are different types of Lighting , and the type you choose affects how it is installed. For example, freestanding light fixtures are “standing” light fixtures,
That is, those that do not hang on the wall or ceiling – like a floor lamp. Here there is no need for complicated installation, as all that is needed are nearby sockets and that's it.
In contrast, pendant lighting fixtures are fixtures that hang from the ceiling or wall and swing from it, and therefore require a different type of installation and the use of ladders.
Another type is the ceiling-mounted lighting, which is mainly suitable for low ceilings. Finally, the most modern type is Ceiling mounted lighting fixture Recessed in a wall
So you can't see it at all, but it creates a modern, clean, and different atmosphere.
Stable ladders
As long as it is not an independent body, one of the important things in installing lighting is using stable ladders. Stable ladders Will ensure safe work
When you climb to the ceiling and install the new body, it is always recommended to work with another person to hold the ladder from below, so you will further increase safety.
If the height is relatively high, it is recommended to work with protective equipment.
Ordering an electrician
Please note – if you are installing the lighting fixture “from scratch” using tools, you must use an electrician. Only a licensed electrician may perform electrical work.
And it doesn't matter how much you understand in the field. An electrician knows how to install the lighting fixture in the appropriate place (for example, a place where there is no risk of moisture), knows how to disconnect the electricity,
Mark the drilling location and connect the electrical wires to the light fixture. He knew how to do this professionally and safely and made sure there was no danger that the light fixture was too heavy for the wall.
Therefore, do not play dangerous games with electricity and always seek professional help if necessary.
Recessed lighting
If it is recessed lighting in the wall, preliminary work must be done. This usually involves “lowering the ceiling,” when the lighting fixtures are installed in the wall.
This is a more complex job, so it is recommended to invite professionals who understand the field of recessed lighting and know how to do it in the best way.
While accurately measuring all bodies and creating work that is as clean as possible.
safety
No matter who is doing the work and what type it is, it is always important to maintain maximum safety – stable ladders and protection against electric shock.
All residents in the house must be informed so that they do not mess with the electricity while the work is being done!
