I am replacing a door bell. The new door bell comes with a transformer that is to be wired to a junction box. My problem is this -- the door bell is located in my kitchen, where there is no easily accessible junction box. Someone suggested I wire the transformer to the leads of a nearby light switch, and then run a connecting lead to the doorbell. Is this okay to do? The transformer has a ground wire -- where would I attach the ground? I know nothing about electrical and don't want to burn down my house!
