HOW TO INSTALLING THE HOUSEHOLD ELECTRICAL INSTALLATIONS

Installation in homes should be done by a professional or a person who understands the intricacies of power such as the contractor installers who are used to connect electrical appliances for household needs. However there is no harm if we as homeowners know about how to assemble electrical installations in the home, because it is mandatory to learn especially when now many resources that we can get easily.

To become an expert in the field of electricity needs to be a strong determination and patience, should if we want to learn learned first electric let simple things little by little.

Before we proceed to the next lesson should be learned first few electrical appliances in the house that is not one of the pairs as below:

Tips to Prevent Electrical Fire Hazards Due to short circuit

sekring
Prevention is better than cure, the adage applies to electricity. Before going on things like unwanted fire accident happens to you, we should do the precautions as described below:

We recommend that you submit the installation of 1 houses / buildings you on installers. Legally installer has the responsibility for security installations.

2 Try to avoid piling plug or power jack too much in one place (outlet) for the connection as it will continue to accumulate heat that can ultimately lead to electrical short circuit.

3 Use of electrical equipment that meets ISO standards and the right size.

4 Use the fuse is still good and replace it with a new fuse broken, do not try to connect a fuse with the fiber wire.

5. Take care of electrical installations periodically to determine if there is damage to the electrical equipment such as wires or insulation that is open on the connection. if possible replace all the installation path once every five years.

Step 6: Use the appropriate cable type and size designation and current-carrying capacity.

7 In the event of a fire due to electrical short circuit due to safety Mini circuit breaker (MCB) is not functioning properly, turn off the power immediately from KWH meters. Do not flush with water when the source of the fire is still no electric current.

8 If you need a new electrical connection to legally list the agency concerned, not from illegal sources.

Keep in mind that the short-circuit or short circuit is direct contact between the positive and negative wires are usually accompanied by sparks, and the sparks that triggered the fire. Agency concerned has installed MCB kWh and integrated with OA Kast which serves as a barrier when usage exceeds the load capacity as well as a safety when a short circuit occurs.

Things to Look For When Installing Electrical Wiring in the Home

Perhaps many of the readers who have expertise in the electrical installation at home despite only limited autodidact (self study). Errors in the installation of electrical installation guidelines are paying less attention to the dangers at risk, such as common is a fire.

To avoid the risk of installation errors would be helpful to consider the preparation before installation and after installation, in this case we have to double check whether the installation is correct or not before we circulate electricity.


Preparation before installation.

1. materials
Should use materials or electrical equipment that suits your needs, you should use SNI. For example, for the size of the wires on the main line using size 2.5 mm or above, and using a single cable (not fibers) for the entire electrical pathway.

2 Equipment / tools work
Complete tool for electrical installation in accordance with the needs, for example: +/- screwdriver, pliers combination, isolation, hammer, tespen, and others. Thus we will have no trouble in doing all types of electrical work.

3 Complete tool ancillary equipment will be installed
for example, use clamps for cabling on wood / ceiling, insulation for electrical wires,

4 Prepare ourselves.
Make sure you study carefully about the electrical installation techniques, better if we draw scheme results / electric lines to be installed, so that we will have no trouble when going to install it later.

5 Use an assistant.
If possible ask for help from others to accompany us during setup, it's easier when we need the help of which we can not do alone. Before doing work at home make sure the power is turned off.

reexamination

When we have completed the installation of electrical installations in the home, preferably before restarting the flow of electricity, check the entire repeat the results of our work, for example:

     Check each connection whether cable is securely and correctly.
     make sure the positive cable through the switch to the light fittings.
     Do not get confused between the positive cable, negative or grounding / earthing.

HOW EXCHANGE SWITCHES stringing

Exchange switch or a lot of people call it by name: switch hotel, switch hall, staircase switch, is a series of electrical installations with the principle of "control of one or several lamps by two switches", point is that we can turn on and off the lights with two switches independently , for example, we put a light on an area of ​​the stairs, and then we put two switches for the lights, the position of the switch is placed in the bottom of the stairs while the switch is again placed in the top of the stairs, while we're on the bottom and then turn on the lights with a switch that is under then we walked up the stairs then to turn it off does not need to go down to the bottom of the ladder again but just turn it off by using the switch located at the top of the stairs. For more details, please refer to the explanation below:

equipment:

     combination pliers
     screwdriver min and plus
     hammer
     cutter knife

Ingredients:

     Long power cord ........ tailored to the needs.
     Special insulating power ............................................... 1 piece .......
     Exchange switch ................................................ ................ 2 pieces
     Light fittings ................................................ ................ 1 piece
     lights ................................................. ........................ 1 piece

Stringing ways:

     Connect the mains cable to the switch terminals 1, then connected to the master switch terminal 2
     connect one of the terminals on switch 1, to one switch terminal 2, then connect the positive cable to the main line of electrical installations in the home.
     Attach the cable to the switch terminal 1, which is then connected to the other switch terminal 2, other then connect to one of the terminals on the light fittings.
     light fittings that connect the other terminal to the negative cable main line of electrical installations in the home.

ONE SWITCH, FOR THREE LIGHT

Using a switch to turn on and turn off a few lights and is one practical way in a circuit, this circuit is useful for use in a large room such as a hall, synagogue, or convention center, but did not rule also installed in the family room. The principle of this circuit is to turn off all the lights by the switch alone.

In this post I will just give an example of how to create a circuit switch for the electrical installation of the three lamps only, if you want to use more than three lights then just dial only from one of the lights are already on the switch. For more details please learn a series of drawings and description.

equipment:

     combination pliers
     screwdriver plus
     monyong pliers / pliers crocodile

Ingredients:

     NYM cable lengths 2X1,5mm size adjusted to the needs.
     Insulation for electrical wiring
     Three light fittings
     single switch

Caption:

     +: Positive cable from the main line of electrical installations
     -: Negative cable from the main line of electrical installations
     G: Cable grounding
     S: single switch
     L1, L2, L3: Lights

ways stringing

     To avoid the danger of electric shock should be turned off before the MCB.
     Connect the positive cable from the main line with one of the electrical installation to use your switch cable connectors are black,
     Combine one of the connectors of each light fittings using black cable and then connect the connector to the switch that is not connected everywhere.
     Connect the connector fittings third light (which is not connected to cable everywhere negatis main line electrical installations).
     Close all connections using isolation to avoid short circuit or short circuit.

If the circuit is mounted then re-check whether all connections are correct, if it is correct then it's time to try, plug in the lights and turn on the third MCB fittings, try to play the third switch if the lights are controlled by a single switch? when it is the making of the series successful.
(* In the picture above circuit grounding wires are unused because the cables are generally installed at the outlet, I just complete it to the reader to know that in addition to the negative and positive wires there is also cable grounding / earthing)

How to connect stranded cable CABLE WITH SINGLE

Splicing fiber cables with a single cable is rare and so far I have not heard about the connection, but sometimes we are forced or trapped in the situation, there are several factors that can cause the cord connecting the two different types made ​​such as: because cost limitations, may of us want to use the existing cable (former but still good), indeed it is legitimate for both the cable has to have clear specifications such as size and standardization

According to my experience there are several requirements that must be met if we are going to connect two different cables, namely:

     Minimum cable diameter size equal or similar to facilitate the process of rolling the cable.
     The cable used has a standard ISO and SPLN
     Used for branching cables, for example for the lights and switches.
     Correct way of connecting the cable that has the following requirements: a strong, far-flung distances with other connections, coated insulation.


Perhaps the way I explain this is rarely found in guide books electrical installation because it is the result of personal experience I am actually less fit if a single cable with a cable spliced ​​fibers because both are different types of cables, single cable used for electrical installations on the main line and its ramifications and the fact that a single cable commonly installed stationary in one place, while the fiber cable is commonly used on electronic equipment or that its use could roll the cable move.

Sometimes we are confused how to connect a single cable with stranded cable, various methods are used, but still, the results are less satisfactory, some effects of the cable connecting the less fit are:
- Easy connection release.
- Cable fibers easily break, especially on the part closest to the connection.
- An electric current that passes through the connection often dropped out and disconnected.
Perhaps of things that seeprti then I tried to find a way how to keep a wired connection does not pose a problem, for those who encounter problems in connecting cables with different types then please follow the steps and tricks that I've ever done.



gambar kabel sejajarBefore you dial the cable would be nice if we first prepare the necessary equipment such as:
- Fiber cable
- A single cable
- Combination pliers
- Special insulation for electrical wiring






How to connect:
1. prepare both ends of the cable to be spliced ​​fiber cable and single cable then peeled coating (insulator) on the second cable to the existing copper wires visible inside 2-4cm.pilinlah roughly along the fiber cable in order to converge to facilitate the process grafting. hold both wires so it looks like side by side, in this position the location of the second parallel cable.


2.wrap the cable fibers in a single cable so that the coil covering half of a single cable
3. pull and bend the fiber cable until it is located opposite to the single cable.
4.wrap the rest of the cable is not twisted single fiber cable that can cover the winding single cable and single cable fiber cable itself.
5. in this way the connection is more powerful and well-connected, to keep the connection does not harm us then seal the connection with insulation.


With a few guidelines as above grafting may be able to answer questions that often arise when we want to connect a different cable types between fiber cables with a single cable.
