Question:

Electrical Wiring. Help joining two different wires.?

I need to connect 2 wires.First wire has 4 colours. Red, Blue, White, Green.the Second wire has two colours, Black Brown.How do I join the two wires together?

Answer:

Just what are you trying to supply power to? Red and Blue are typically hot wires, White for neutral and Green is for ground in home circuitry. Black is for hot and brown is neutral going to ground on motorcycles and vehicles. Don't remember ever seeing brown wires for home circuits. If messing with a ceiling fan then attach the Red, Blue and Black together, then the White with the Brown. The Green should attach to a screw bolt on the fan hanger. Then turn on the switch to see if it works or goes snap, crackle and pop. You need to explain just what you're messing with for a more concise answer.
