Default What to do with unused electrical wiring

Yes, the only thing I'd add though is that as you are selecting the two
wires to wire-nut together, have the remaining switch in what you want
to be the ON position. Otherwise, Murphy's law will kick in and you
will wire nut it so you have to flip the switch DOWN to turn the light
ON and it will drive your wife nuts until you fix that.


Not counting 3-way switches, the major cause of having to put the
switch down to light the room is buying NO and FO switches in the
first place. Be sure to look at your switches before you buy them.
