It’s not illegal for home owners to do their own work or they wouldn’t sell supplies at the hardware store. Your best bet to jump off for power without a new breaker on your panel is either an existing 110v receptical or a light switch. You need a neutral to go back to the panel to balance any load safely and a live all the time hot for your vacuum to charge. On top of that you need a ground connected both to the outlet box and the ground screw on the receptacle. If you tap into a light switch , the white neutrals are likely wire nutted together so you’ll need to join in with that. If there’s no neutral at the switch at all (could be both a white and black on the switch) then the power is fed to the light then sent down to the switch then back up to the light. If that’s the case then you can grab all 3 needed lines at the light. If not then the hot feeding the switch will need to be unhooked, then make a 6” long jumper to refeed the switch and join that with feed you took off your switch and also with your hot going out to your new receptical. Use a set of pliers to tightly and neatly twist your wires together before putting the wire nuts on and make sure there’s no bare wire visible except your ground. All connections need to be tight,make nice neat hooks under your receptical screws not just jabbed underneath. If all of this doesn’t make perfect sense and is easy then ask a professional to do it for you. Loose connections cause arking which can cause a fire when your least expecting. Improper grounding can cause a potentially fatal shock to an innocent person. It might only be 110-120V but there can be enough current to kill.

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
