Common Mistakes in Christmas Light Installation πŸŽ„πŸ’‘

❌ Overloading Circuits

⚑ One of the most common mistakes is connecting too many lights to a single outlet. This can trip breakers and even cause damage.

πŸ”§ **Solution:** Use the 80% rule! Only use 80% of the available wattage of any outlet. For LEDs, you can connect more strands safely, but with incandescent bulbs, limit the total number of lights per outlet to 200 bulbs or fewer.
