Problems mounting Samsung TV to the wall - watch this! (Wall Mount Adapters / Spacers -TIP!!)
มุมมอง 325K4 ปีที่แล้ว
I made this video to explain the wall mount adapters and longer bolts needed to mount a large Samsung TV to the wall. This video is to give some guidance on how to know bolt sizes and bracket sizes before buying a wall mount/bracket for your Samsung TV. The wall mount adapters come free with your Samsung TV - look in the box/packaging for the Accessory Kit/Pack. That's where I found mine. If yo...

    Should make the video while taking old fixtures off. Just listening is not the same as watching and listening at the same time.

    I have 2 switches controlling the pendant light. Does that mean both of the switch live wires would go into a connector with the live?

    Thank you. I'm originally from Hungary and wanted to fit my new ceiling light with the 2 wires and nearly had a stroke when I saw all of those coming from my ceiling. Great video.

    Like everyone else I was blown away with the clarity of your instructions. I'd watched lots of others and failed to understand why our ceiling wiring is different and now it is crystal clear. I'll get some cable connectors and some 3 core wire and make sure all the wires go in the right place. Thanks for sharing it.

    Switchbot bots on your light switch will be one way of making your setup 'smart', scheduleable and remote controllable.

    I have a similar situation,2 ceiling lights,2 switches but one ceiling light has 4 wires. Stupid me hadnt seen the 4rth wire and i dont know what to do with it. Im changing the light fittings in a sitting room,the ones im taking off has a big metal box capable of taking everything inside it,now whoever did the installation used like a ceiling rose screwed to ceiling on top of the flat bar and that was ok. The fittings i have to put in are half the size of the one coming off so i have to identifie all wires and connet them properly and push them up the ceiling.only what do i do with the 4th wire 😰

    • @solite4168
      @solite4168 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hiya - you could test that 4th wire with a voltage detector pen (like this one amzn.eu/d/6tAH5bt), if it beeps the wire is live. But if you're not sure what you're doing please call an electrician!

    One of your live wires in the 3 way connector looks to have burning?. The one near your switched live with the 90° bend. Can be seen when you pushed the 3 way out of the way.

    You are an angel sent by heaven to help electricity noobs like me. I have the exact same setup as you, only my neutrals are black, even my light fitting connector block looks identical and I ordered the same clippy orange grey blocks from amazon. But whatever I tried my fuse box tripped. I will have been is despair the last two days, and the electrician is busy at the moment. I will try again using your video as a guide. Hopefully I will be victorious over the ceiling spaghetti monster 👹 🍝

      Looks like wago connectors. Although there are similar products on the market. Hope this helps.

    Massive thank you for uploading this video. I have been trawling the internet for the past hour trying to understand how I'm meant to fit so many wires into my new light fitting and couldn't understand what I needed. This video clearly explained what I was missing and I have now ordered all the parts you suggested. Your video was clearly explained and super helpful!

    Just going through the comments and great that 99% approve!!! But please be aware you are putting your life at risk!! Didn't confirm cables dead before touching them!! It's not just about flicking a labled switch and cracking on... don't learn the hard way. Get an electrician 🤷🏻

    Thanks, seeing them separated in those connectors and then being wired into a new light made this make sense to me after watching 5 other videos lol.
