What are the advantages of ceiling fans with decorative lights?
Let’s quickly point out 4 outstanding advantages that have been fully favored by customers for ceiling fans with decorative lights!
#1. Rotation reversing function
Is a new feature present in some models of recent years. Today, ceiling fans are not only responsible for cooling in the summer but also the ability to warm the room in the winter, ventilating every season changes.
The reverse rotation function means that the propeller will change the reverse direction after you press the switch on the remote control or on the engine body.
#2. Energy saving
The right motor change is the main reason why the power savings are so significant. With DC motors using direct current, the motor core is made of 100% pure copper, so the power consumption of a ceiling fan is 70% compared to the motors of previous years.

- A ceiling fan is the only product that still retains the same shell as the old ceiling fan models, only the improved engine is changed inside. A ceiling fan is suitable for those who like the traditional beauty of an ancient ceiling fan.
#4. Noise is minimized
In the past, ceiling fan noise was annoying for users when its stability was too high. With the variable motor, the ceiling fan is running more smoothly, so the noise is significantly reduced.

How to wire ceiling fan and light separately
Below are some steps and notes about How to wire ceiling fan and light separately.
#1. Find the right spot
You get more effective and efficient when selecting the correct installation location. There would still be sufficient justification to ensure protection not to overlook a convenient spot. There are some things to remember in order to decide the best location for installation.
First of all, at least 8-9 feet off the ground so the ventilation is better offered by a fan. The ceiling fan blades must be at least 7 feet higher than the floors. If you want to mount a fan in a high or sloped roof, blade clearance could be in trouble. Using a longer down rod in this situation.
#2. Turn off the switch and learn more about off principles when wiring live
Switching off is essential for an electrical repair process, this is to protect you from bad accidents.
It is not natural that housework such as repairing electrical appliances, fixing appliances, .. is the job that women always assign to men. Because those jobs require logic, dexterity and cannot mention the dangerous difficulties that can occur during repair, especially when wiring live.
By the way, we would like to share with you the essential rules for wiring a live cord.
Principles of wiring? What is live wiring?
Live wiring is a way of connecting a power cord or an electrical switch without turning the power off. This can happen when there is a problem with your home electrical system where you cannot disconnect the total power supply and you have no choice but to wire the power while the power is on. Jute is a fairly quick way to hide wires, but in the process, there are many dangers and should usually only be done by qualified electricians.
Principles of wiring to ensure safety
When conducting live wiring to ensure absolute safety for yourself and your family, you should note the following wiring principles:
Master the wiring rules as well as the guidelines when performing repairs. Besides, you need to equip yourself with a full range of protective equipment such as rubber gloves, electric pliers, cutting pliers, electric tester, screwdrivers with insulating sheath,…
Electric wires, whether large or small, are capable of discharging and arcing, causing danger to repairmen. Therefore, when you repair any power source, you must also disconnect the source CB of the wiring to be connected, to ensure safety, without affecting other power sources.
Notes on electrical repair
If you are not allowed to cut off the power source, the electrical equipment that allows for live connection is: light fixture, replace the capacitor, replace the branch CB. But if you have to change or wire at complicated equipment and currents, you should use a generator to supply power and then cut off the power to be connected to ensure safety.
Only connect or connect a live cord, but no load or very little load.
In the process of wiring live, you need to keep away from neutral conductors from the body or, if possible, you need to have someone standing by you to help promptly when something goes wrong.
Some experience for live wiring
When wiring live power, follow proper technique regardless of whether it is AC or DC power. When playing, always connect the hotline first and then connect the cold line later and when you remove it, I will do the opposite. When doing this, you need to stand correctly, stand in a dry place, not in direct contact with the ground, and do not touch other people.
#3. Determine the cold chain hotline before the match
- Option 1: You can ask the help of an electric tester to check the open circuit. Observed on the electric tester, the light only lights up when we are in contact with the hot wire (phase wire), but if we try on both ends, the current has problems. Now you need to check the power supply and disconnect it immediately to avoid danger.
- Option 2: Use a 220VAC bulb (incandescent lamp), a connector with a hot wire that you know the other end, connect with a sharp needle (the more insulating the better), then you touch other wires when the light is on. that would be cold wire. Note that this method should only be used for families using 1-phase current.
#4. Wire connection
To connect separate wiring for ceiling fans and lights is basically planned to feed both switches through electricity supply lines.
Following that, the light or the fan kit will be fed on each turn. You will then work together to curl the soil and neutral cables. For lines that go from and to switches, the ground must be expected to be 12/2. And that’s why you have to be incredibly sure that these are labeled as hot wires. Only wrap around the white ends with a black electric band.
Certain requirements are valid for the code. You should also note that there are usually different routes for linking cables. You can use the standard 12/2 wire in this situation. However, if you plan to use a 12/3 wire then it’s going to take a little less time.
In general, both hot and black wires must be used to control both switches. It is easy to jump to both switches simply using longer-duration wires. Jumping here means that the cable is kept short and disconnected. And you can loop the hot terminal quickly.
Only loop the uncovered wire side gently around the hot terminal of the first turn. After that, you must also connect to the second turn by eliminating the top. Hot returns are the red and white cables. There are those on both sides that have black tapes with hot wires.
Conclusion
With the desire to save more energy, the product can become more flexible, now you have a solution, which is separate wiring for ceiling fans and lights. During wiring, you need to pay attention to the problem and the way the power cord works to limit bad situations!
