Electrical questions, answered by experts

It is possible to change a light fixture by only flipping the light switch, but it’s better to be safe than sorry. Exercising extra caution when working with electricity is always important.

Once you’ve flipped the circuit breaker and the light switch, use a voltage tester to confirm the power has been turned off.
