labeled as outdoor lights and have a small, circular label that says "UL" or
"ETL."
2 Plug your Christmas lights into a ground-fault circuit interrupter, or
GFCI. A GFCI is a device that automatically detects short circuits and shuts
off the current. They can be recognized by two buttons labeled "test" and "
reset" built into the plug. If you do not have a GFCI, you can buy a
portable one and plug it into a wall socket.
3 Check the Christmas light strands for damage. The cord should not be
frayed or torn, and there should be no missing or broken bulbs.
4 Connect your strands of Christmas lights by placing the connections
between two strands out of the snow, either directly off the roof or above
it. Hang all the lights facing downward from their sockets and out of the
snow.
5 Connect the lights to an outdoor extension cord in a dry area. The
connector should not be directly beneath the eaves of the house or near a
rain spout.
6 Connect the extension cord into the GFCI.
7 Turn off the lights at day time.
