@aceeca116 the white wire is spliced to another white wire within the box that goes to the light or outlet or whatever is the load in your circuit. dont forget the wire nut over the splice haha

Please note when putting the switch box onto the stud, make sure you extend it outward for the thickness of your drywall. So if you are using 1/2" drywall extend the box 1/2" out toward you, then the box will be flush with the drywall.

How to connect an illuminated light switch is needed

The hot wire is the one that needs to be switched. The neutral return path is the one that is retained. Both switches and most light fixtures need the ground wire. |
