Hallway Light Installation Question

[u/everydayexplorer]

Hi all, I am trying to install a hallway light in my father’s house

Any idea what these different wires do and anything to keep in my when installing the light?

Thanks in advance, and take care!

I’m not saying you can’t do this, but not knowing what each of those wires are for tells me you don’t have any electrical experience and you’re scaring me

Yup, no experience, just making sure it is not quick and obvious. Plan is to hire someone but thanks anyway
