Installing track lighting using an existing ceiling box is one of the easiest of all do-it-yourself electrical jobs. That said, if you're not comfortable working with electrical wiring, don't hesitate to hire a professional electrician. Before following the steps outlined below, make sure the power is turned off for the circuit that you're working on. Post a sign or lock out the panel box as a further precaution.
How to install track lights
If you're not replacing an existing light fixture, a new electrical run/junction box has to be installed for your track lights. That's a much more experienced do-it-yourself job that will likely require a licensed electrician. It might then be easier to have the electrician do the whole track lighting installation.
