Wiring Power To Light Then Switch. The white/black then carries the switched hot line back to the light fixture, where you again mark it with black, and connect it to the black wire from the fixture. I have three lights with the power to the first light and passing through the other two and then to a switch.
Single-pole switches are the most common light switches in a home. The white/black then carries the switched hot line back to the light fixture, where you again mark it with black, and connect it to the black wire from the fixture. Turn off the power to the switch at the main circuit breaker or fuse panel.
The switch wires are added as shown in the ceiling rose diagram above and connected to.
Wrap a piece of black electrician's tape around it at both ends or color the end black with a marker to show that it If power goes to the fixture first and then to the switch, you have "end-line" wiring.
Do the same with the white wires, then do it once more with the ground wires. If you would like to remove the light fixture box, and there is access to the attic area then the fixture box could be removed, and the wiring installed into a new junction box located. Each switch then feeds either the fan (black wire) or light kit (blue wire).
