How to transfer the rosette correctly. Tips of the master

How comfortable the electrical outlet is in an apartment or a house depends on the comfortable life of the owners. Often, the already available scheme of their location does not suit the new owners, or in the house there is some technique for which it is required to make the transfer of the outlet to another place. To transfer the outlet is quite possible with their own hands, all actions on how to transfer the socket are quite simple and understandable for a person familiar with the puncher and the basics of electrical engineering.

Nevertheless, in order to properly transfer the outlet to another location, you must seriously prepare.

1. Draw up a preliminary scheme. To transfer the outlet was rational, you must choose the location of its future location.

2. Based on this scheme, determine the site, the on which there is no hidden wiring to safely build a new cable there. This must be done in order to avoid a power outage or an accident.

3. Evaluate the amount of work and prepare the necessary tools and materials, the necessary wire and a socket that meets the requirements.

Tools and materials

- from the tool you will need: a perforator, a crown for drilling a hole for a socket with a diameter of 6 mm, a screwdriver, pliers, chisel and hammer, a probe;

- from materials: mounting and distributing boxes, dowel-clamp 10, insulating tape 20 mm, gypsum building, gloves.

The basic requirements for self-porting the electrical outlet

In the apartment is recommended to use the cable VVGng, connecting the electrical outlet is best done with the use of this cable, you need to purchase it in the amount necessary according to the scheme.

When choosing the outlet, one must proceed from the purpose for which it will serve. A single socket or candy bar, which type of plug will be used. Today in all rooms only so-called euronets with grounding are installed. The most well-known manufacturers on the market are manufacturers Legend, Simons, ABB.

Procedure for transferring the electrical outlet

outlet Definitely determining where to transfer the outlet is necessary: ​​

- to find the junction box nearest to the installation site of the new socket from which the old socket was powered;

- switch off the protective circuit breaker on the central panel, disconnecting the power supply in the apartment;

- open the junction box and find the connection point of the outgoing cable with the hidden cable that is connected to the old outlet and disconnect them;

- on the wall to lay a route along which the furrow will be punched to lay a new cable. According to SNiP and PUE, the horizontal part should pass at a distance of 200 mm from the ceiling and then the penalty is directed at an angle of 90 degrees vertically to the place of installation of the new outlet;

- using a perforator to break the groove along the paved route in such a way that its depth allows to apply the plaster layer not less than 15 mm to the cable;

- at a given place in the wall with a perforator and crown, prepare a nest with a diameter of 60 and a depth of 50 millimeters to install the mounting box;

- smear the inner part of the socket and the outer part of the box with building gypsum and insert the box into the socket. It is necessary to allow time for the box to fix itself in the cast;

- to fix the cable in the punched furrow, fill the dowel-yoke at a distance of 500 mm from each other and then lay the cable;

- in the junction box connect the output and the new cable to each other. When connecting cables it is necessary to take into account that strands of cores are not allowed, in these places with a high probability of possible short circuit or overheating of the wire due to the formed loose fit of the veins. For the correct connection, you need a galvanized bolt with a nut and washers or a terminal box, one of the best options is to wire the wires together. The connection must be covered with electrical tape;

- connect the cable to a new outlet and install it in a junction box, securely securing, not allowing the slightest backlash. Otherwise, after a while, you can pull it out of the box with the plug. When connecting the cable to the connectors of the box, take care. The wires must be wound around the mounting bolt with a ring, then the connection will turn out to be reliable and the socket will work at full strength of its assigned parameters;

After making all the connections, it is necessary to close the furrow in which the cable is laid by putting a layer of building gypsum.

The transfer of the outlet is done, the affairs are finished, now you can enjoy the fruits of your work, using a newly installed outlet.

A simple way to transfer the

outlet If you already have a finishing trim, and you need to transfer the outlet, you can use this method.

In this case, we will pull a new outlet through the socket of the old one. In this case, it is better to use a new wire from the same metal as the old one.

Wires are twisted, isolated in 2-3 layers. It is better in this case to additionally use a heat shrink tube.
