I would like to install pull chain lights in my cellar that work independently of each other. How do I wire a string of these lights on a single wire. Do I need to use 3-wire to the first light followed by 2-wire between the 1st and 2nd lights so there is a separate hot going to each light?Thank You
Pull chain (keyed) lights only require a constant power source since the switch is built into the light. You can run 2-wire cable from any power source to the lights. If you want independent remote switch control for keyless (no pull chain) lights, then you need a switch leg for each light you want to control. If you have 2 lights, you can run 2-wire from a power source to the switch control, 3-wire from the switches to the first light, and 2-wire from the first to second light. The red conductor of the 3-wire would be the switch leg for the first light, and the black conductor (which would just be tied through at the first light) would control the second light.
Wire them in series circuit of 15 amps
