1. 1:10–1:28 Install Electrical Wiring From Recessed Staircase Lighting, Step 3: Install Wiring

   Before proceeding, ensure the power to the circuit you are working on is turned OFF at the breaker. Run power from the existing wall switch to the first fixture location. Then, run new electrical wiring between each subsequent light fixture, effectively daisy-chaining them. A fish tape can be used to pull wires through the ceiling cavity. Ensure that each wire coming out of the ceiling has at least 12 to 18 inches of slack to allow for easy connections.

2. 2:05–2:23 Install Light Bulbs and Trim From Recessed Staircase Lighting, Step 8: Install Trim or Covers

   With the housing securely in place and the power still off, screw the light bulb or LED lamp directly into the fixture's socket. Once the bulb is installed, attach the decorative trim pieces. These trim pieces usually snap or clip into place, providing a finished look that covers the edge of the ceiling hole and integrates the light seamlessly into the ceiling.
