Where to start?

The first step is to draw a wiring diagram from the input to the end points - sockets, lights and light switches in each room. Examples of schemes for one-room, two-room and three-room apartments we have already provided on the site. Find them is not difficult.

Next, according to the prepared project, you need to calculate and select the appropriate circuit elements. When installing electrical wiring in a new building, we recommend you to choose the following components:

  1. Three-core cable, VVGng or NYM, 3 * 2.5 mm2 for sockets, 3 * 1.5 mm2 for the lighting line, 3 * 4 mm2 for connecting the electric stovein the kitchen.
  2. Sockets in bathroom with IP degree of protection not less than 44.
  3. Light switches with illumination.
  4. Circuit-breaker separately for lighting line, rated 10A and for sockets - 16 or 25A.Before the machine, it is recommended to connect a 30 mA RCD to protect against current leakage.
  5. Junction boxes must be installed in each room. Connection of wires in boxes - WAGO terminals.
  6. At the input, it is necessary to install an automatic machine, which will be able to disconnect all electricity in the apartment during repair work.
  7. To conduct wiring in the apartment need a hidden way, i.e.in prepared stitches.

Here are the basic elements that you need to purchase before installation. We draw your attention to the fact that you can not follow our recommendations, for example, conduct wiring in a new building open-ended or choose an automaton with a different nominal value. The tips given above are common, and not for a specific case.
