Hi all!
I am probably not the person that should be asking this question because I know NOTHING about wiring at all but my dad and my husband will be replacing our bathroom light fixtures this weekend and I want them to be as prepared as possible.
My question is this: How complicated/what needs to be done in order to replace an 8 light single, center mounted light fixture with two individual 3 light fixtures? I know that there is one hole currently housing the wiring for the single mounted fixture. Will that need to be patched over and two other holes made with the wires fed through two new holes for the new light fixtures? Will the wiring that is currently there be able to easily be used for the new light fixtures? Will any additional wiring or anything be required?
I am located in the US and our house was built in 2003 just in case that information is necessary.
I appreciate your help! I'll pass along any information I receive to my husband and my dad.
Thanks!
