you run the wire from the fixture [after you mount it] to a power source

first you need a level sensor mounted near the ground to trip the light when the water gets high. mount it lower than flood stage so you have time to get out. it should be water proof so it doesnt short out.
if you have a outlet on the same wall as the outside wall that you are going to put the spot light then all you have to do is turn off power to the outlet (breaker). then run a wire up the wall to the attic and over to where you are going to put the light. wire black to black and white to white. green is ground. once everything is wired then switch on the breaker and let the light shine. be careful and good luck.
