How to Install A Dimmer Switch - Step by Step

We Install a New Chandelier by the the Dining area ... later to discover that the Squirrel Cage Filament Light Bulbs had the capability to "DIM". Though our "Regular Wall Switch" couldn't do the 'Magic'.
_ We therefore had to replace it with LUTRON DIMMER SWITCH.

Just what i needed. I tapped power from an existing outlet, and so had black & white (and bare) wires in. Then I ran romex wire from the switch to the light. I thought all black wires were supposed to be wired together. Of course, that gave me constant power (constant "on") at the light. Watching your video i realized the white wires at the switch should be connected and stowed, and that the black wire from the source goes into the switch black wire, and the other black wire (to the light) is to be attached to the red wire. Obviously, I am a know-(almost)-nothing but it feels so good to figure this out. Thank you for the video.

If I have two black wires, which one do I secure the red one too

[JustinsAutoWorks]

How do you know which color wires from the new switch connect to what black wires are coming out of the wall? Because all the wires coming from the wall in your video are all black, not colored.

You didn’t put tape on the red wire with the blue wire nut on it
