Hope someone can help me.
I have no place to have a ceiling light in a Cedar Cathedral roof. I do not want to cut into the roof and there is no way to access it from above even if I did.
I need light and I think the easiest thing to do is to run a swag (keep the lamps away from the Young’uns).
We have picked up a nice pendent lite and would like to turn it into a swag. I understand the wiring aspect of it but I guess I would like to know if I can splice it at the top of the pendent where it would normally attach to the ceiling box. The question I guess is whether I require clearance or anything special to do this as there is no box and all there would be is wood, 2 wires, and the cover to the base of the swag (and of course the ground wire from the pendent base which wouldn’t be connected to anything).
Thank you
