I have a pendant light that is meant to hang from the ceiling and have a

base and get a new set of wires that has a hot, neutral AND ground and
reinsert that? If so, how do you do that? Do I cut off just the plug
and wire it with the 2 wires in the cord? If so, isn't that a fire
hazard? I am confused and could really use some advice on this.
Thanks!
depends what country youre in. Help yourself here.

I am in the US. The ceiling has a medallion on it that I dare not try to remove. The idiot before me glued it to the ceiling. Not a little glue, lathered it. It is an IKEA light (KNAPPA - for anyone wanting to look at it). I would prefer to cut it to the length I want, buy a ceiling plate to hide the wire and just connect the two wires. I am hoping that will work. It will not always be on, it is a dining room fixture.
Thanks,
Jess
