bring your hot two the switch. run a switch leg to black of the photo cell white to white and the red of the photo cell to the black of the light. If the switch is off the light will not come on because the photo cell as no power. if you leave the switch on it will come on at night and go off at day light or you go flip the switch off at anytime at night you choose and the light will go off
