Wiring An Apartment

Wiring in an apartment or house must be in accordance with the PES (Regulation of Electric), subject to the rules of electric safety. All expressed in this article, the recommendations correspond to the PES and are designed for covert and overt (external) wiring. First consider the case of hidden wiring, immured in the masonry (concrete) wall. For even more analysis, hear from Spm Llc. To begin with planning and approximate wiring diagrams, arrangement of furniture, fixtures, appliances, switches and sockets. Thus it is necessary to remember two things: – sockets in the house is never enough, they are never superfluous – the existence of a different house electrical extension cords, tees (except computer “pilots”) causes a lot of inconvenience and increases the risk of short-circuit wiring. The switches have room inside or outside at a distance of 15-20 cm from the door jamb of the door handle, or the height of the 90 cm from the floor, or 150 cm, who both prefer. By the height of outlets should be approached individually, a common height of 30 cm from the floor in the kitchen 10 cm above the tabletop. Wiring plan to carry out parallel to the ceiling at a distance of 15-20 cm away, downhill to the outlets and switches vertically, in places such outlets are planning to junction boxes.

All this is brought to a simple drawing wiring, indicating the distances from the wires to the floor, ceiling, angle, etc. This drawing will serve you in the future an invaluable service when you have to drill the walls or hammer nails into them. On the walls also be marked by which are routed to Stroebe and wiring holes are punched for the boxes, Escutcheon. Having a plan, electrical layout of the apartment, we expect their performance and determine the number of lines wiring.
