Instructions
Plug your chandelier into the terminal kit (also called a socket kit) and turn on to ensure all of the bulbs are working.
Drill a small hole with a mini hand drill where the chandelier will be fitted. To fit a chandelier in the center of a room, draw a pencil line diagonally across the floor of the room above from each corner. Where the lines cross will be the central point of the room.
Cut a small channel in the floor of the room above where your chandelier will be fixed, using a craft knife. Cut from the chandelier hole to the rear wall of the house. The channel needs to be big enough to fit the chandelier wire comfortably.
Drill a small hole in the rear wall of the house where the wall meets the channel you've just cut.
Remove the plug from the chandelier wire by pulling out the two pins with pliers and pulling the wire free of the plug.
Remove the sticky pad from the top of the chandelier.
Thread the chandelier wire up through the hole until the chandelier is in place on the ceiling.
Press the top of the chandelier to the ceiling until the sticky pad is fully attached.
Run the chandelier wire along the channel in the floor above and out through the hole in the back of the wall.
Apply a strip of masking tape across the floor channel to hold the wire in place.
Fit the plug onto the end of the chandelier wire. Push the wire through the thin end of the plug until it comes out the other side.
Separate the chandelier wire by slightly parting the two wires that comprise it.
Wrap each wire around a pin of the plug and push each pin back into place in the plug to complete the wiring.
Plug the completed chandelier plug into a socket of the terminal kit.
Attach the adapter to the terminal kit wire and plug into an electrical socket.
