i have some ikea wall lights that are wired to plug but i would like to wire them into exsiting wall points. Is this possibleSandra
Check with your local building code department. The 16 gauge wire used for those lights is not meant to be run through walls. Other than that, they should work fine. Be sure they're on a suitable breaker and are grounded.
yes as long as any fuses that you remove along with the plug are equalled by fuses in the spur outlet you are using, and the wires are secured so they cannot be pulled down , the plug is the weak point in the circuit if the wire snags it pulls the plug out if you secure the wire the weak point is most likely the wire if it breaks you will have a live wire dangling about so if its not secure its dangerous
Hard wired wall lights have to have the ability to be mounted to the electrical box which would house the connections. If you could mount the lights to a box cover and then to the box I think it would work fine.
