How To Accentuate With Exterior LED Christmas Light Fittings

Suspended www.aGreensupply.com LED christmas lights is popular and customary for many families. But it can be a daunting and frustrating experience. Take your time to plan and hand the LED christmas lights in a step-by-step, organized fashion. A little planning can greatly assist!

Here's what you should know to get the LED christmas lighting project done without the worries and problems.

1. Write an Electric Plan. Plan ahead and know what you have to hang lights on, and the way your family plan to plug them in. Joining too many strings of light bulbs together can blow fuses (especially the lowest priced strings of lights). Plan the set-up by utilizing a few electrical outlets.

2. Safety Issues. Clean up the dried leaves from gutters and downspouts to avoid the chance of fires. Be sure the electrical cords are unbroken and not cracked or torn. Make sure the hooks are secure and have a sturdy place to connect the lights.

3. Use Proper Specialty equipment. Get out the equipment you need for the project. Most likely, you will need a ladder, tape measure, light clips or pins, decorative lights and extension cords. You might also need a sludge hammer, pliers and a screwdriver.

4. Separate light strands and check out the lights. Before attaching any decorations, separate the strands, lay them out across the lawn or driveway to get all the twists and kinks from the strings. Check for damaged bulbs and split wiring. Plug the light strings, and replace any dead bulbs. It's safer to replace burned out bulbs before they are hung and out of reach.

5. Hangers, hooks and clips. Equally space the hooks or clips along the eaves of your house. Make sure the hooks/clips are connected firmly and spread substantially apart to prevent the light strands from dangling or swinging in the breeze. Usually, 12 inches is perfect. Attach all the hooks along the areas you plan to have lights. Don't use staples or nails, since the wire connections can be split, light strands can fail, and potential fire hazards can be created.

6. Hang the lights. Before climbing the ladder, be sure that it is on even ground and has a firm foundation. Ask someone to hold the ladder stable. When hanging www.aGreensupply.com LED christmas lights, you should hold the strings up to protect against the weight from the not-yet-hung portion of the strand from dragging off or breaking any clips or hooks.

7. Power Up. Once the lights have been placed securely in the light hooks, connect the strings into the designed outlets. Set timers if you're using them. Check to be sure there are no extension cords hanging, or hanging wires that could create a safety hazard.

8. All Systems Go. Now it's time to turn on the light fittings and do a final look for any missing or dead bulbs. If there should be a complete string that isn't working, check the links before replacing the string. Many times the problem is a bad connectivity or a burned out lamp instead of a defective string, especially if the strand worked well before hanging.

9. Appreciate the Show! Pick up all particles and empty boxes, get your instruments away, and take a walk from your house to get a better look at your handiwork. Bet you've got the prettiest light display in your village!
