Converting the IKEA Stollet Hanging Lamp Into a Better Table Lamp

Step 5Wire Lamp for Corded Electricity

Wire Lamp for Corded Electricity
Since this hanging lamp was originally intended for mounting to the ceiling, it did not arrive with a plug. Thus, one must be added now.

As you'll see, I've drilled a small hole near (what will be) the bottom of the box to feed the plug's cable directly into (what will be) the lamp's wooden base.

Please use caution, experience & common sense in wiring the lamp. If you don't know how to wire a lamp, get a friend, electrician or electrician-friend to help you.
