My wife ordered a chandelier off of amazon that requires assembly. The instructions basically say to wire nut the white wires together with one of the main wires (I marked with a red arrow) and then do the same with the black wires. My questions are the following:1) when using a wire nut to connect 9 wires do I need to pre-twist the wires together? Or should I just let the nut do the work (gather them together and then twist the nut on).2) Would anyone put electrical tape around the nut after the connection. I know this is not normally needed, but it just seems like a lot of wires.3) Are the mini zip ties for organization of the wires? If so any tips?4) The company is Jojospring and its a pretty popular chandelier, would anyone upgrade the wire nuts? or just go with the ones in the bag?Thank you!Also on a side note, I love learning about this stuff so if anyone has any good links or online courses I'd definitely be interested. Thanks.https://ift.tt/2OMhbTf via /r/DIY https://ift.tt/2FBLbl8
