Hey guys,

I have a problem that what ever I touch, screws, wire nuts, etc I tend to tighten until I can go anymore.

I’m not sure if I over tightened these wires but when I undid the wire nut to check, some of the wire strands were broken. I re-did the splice but again made it pretty tight.

Not sure if I should redo using wago 221. This vanity light is in a master bath and the entire bedroom and bath is on a single circuit. When looking at the lights up close there is a very faint flicker. If I plug a shop vac into the gfci in the bath the vanity lights dim a bit.

 
I am closing this thread in accordance with forum rules. If you are not an electrician, we are not permitted to assist you in performing your own electrical installation or maintenance work.

If installing stuff is not your occupation, then we can’t help you install stuff. You would have had to agree with that rule during the process of registering on the forum.

The reason is that the forum’s owner does not want a person to get an answer to the question they asked, but not get answers to the dozens of other questions they should have asked and were unaware they needed to ask. The owner of this forum doesn’t want anyone to get injured by any incidents related to electrical installations. But he also doesn’t want to be sued by the injured party’s relatives on the basis of forum members not telling you enough to keep you safe.
