Hi There,
I wanted some advice on help installing a Ring Floodlight Camera.
I had no existing floodlights so is a brand new installation.
Initially i had used a normal appliance cable, containing Live, Neutral and Earth wiring. This was wired to the floodlight and then to a plug, which i could then plug into a socket. However this didn't work.
I then removed the plug and connected the wires directly into the back of one of my sockets. However this also did not work.
I have bought some internal wiring cables, which are the flat grey ones usually found inside the house and wondering if i used this instead would that make a difference in being able to power the floodlight?
Any help or advice would be great. If anyone local to HA2 is willing to take a look, I think its less than an hours work, then let me know also.
Thanks.
 
Best bit of advice I can give you is box it up and get a refund as you have to pay a subscription monthly to view etc Then purchase the Netatmo presence no subscription and operates from smartphones, then call a electrician or Netatmo installer.
