How to Install LED Light Bulbs: A Step-by-Step Guide
- Turn Off Power
Before you start installing LED light bulbs, you need to turn off the power to the light fixture. Turn off the switch on the wall, and then turn off the circuit breaker or remove the fuse that controls the fixture. Make sure you use a voltage tester to confirm that the power is off.
- Remove Old Bulb
Once the power is off, remove the old bulb from the fixture. If it’s a screw-in bulb, turn it counter clockwise to remove it. If it’s a pin-based bulb, gently push in and turn counter clockwise to remove it.
- Choose the Right LED Bulb
Make sure you choose the right LED bulb for your fixture. Check the packaging for information on the bulb’s size, shape, and wattage. You can also check the base of the old bulb to ensure that the new bulb’s base matches.
- Install the LED Bulb
Gently insert the LED bulb into the fixture and turn it clockwise until it’s snug. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the bulb or the fixture. If you’re installing a pin-based bulb, push it in and turn it clockwise until it locks into place.
- Turn on Power and Test
Once the LED bulb is installed, turn the power back on to the fixture. Flip the switch on the wall and test the new LED bulb. Make sure it’s working correctly and producing the desired amount of light.
