Easy, Safe, and Efficient in Installing Electricity
Electrical installation tools must be in every home. This will help you when you need to repair furniture or equipment related to the use of electricity. So that it can solve the problem simply before calling a handyman.
There is a lot of equipment related to the installation and maintenance of electricity at home. But for those of you who are unfamiliar with this field, it is enough to provide the most basic tools.
Electrical Equipment You Must Have
You can get electronic equipment and accessories at the nearest store. Because the needs are simple, you can buy in limited quantities. Here’s what you must provide at home.
1. Electric socket
The first electrical installation tool that must be at home is a socket. Wall sockets are planted to allow current to flow to electronic devices.
2. Electric switch
The switch functions to connect or disconnect the power flow. In households, it is mostly used to turn lights on and off.
3. Power Plug
The power jack plug serves to drain the current. This electrical installation tool is installed at the end of the cable.
4. Plug Head
The function of the plug head is to connect electricity and electronic equipment cables. It is equipped with a pull lever to make it easier for users to attach it to a socket.
5. Electric meter
This electrical installation tool is always in every house, building and other structures. Its function is to connect electronic devices with power sources.
6. Cable
Its function is to conduct current from the source. There are several types including NYA with various colors, NYM in white, and NYY in black.
7. Electrical Safety
This safety can reduce the risk of short circuit. The way it works is to melt the fine wire when excessive current flows, a short circuit or short circuit occurs. With this safety, electronic equipment will not be easily damaged.
8. Extension Socket or Terminal
Extensions are mandatory because it makes it easier to use power simultaneously.
9. Ground or Grounding
Usually placed near the electricity meter. The ground is active when the voltage is too high and a leakage occurs so that current will immediately flow to ground.
10. Socket
This electrical installation tool serves to connect power sources to electronic devices such as TV, telephone, wifi, and others.
11. Melted Security
Serves to disconnect the network by melting the wire in the tube. This tool also helps maintain security from the risk of short circuits.
12. Thermal Security or MCB
Protection in the event of a short circuit or overload. Usually used to limit power as well as security.
13. Cable Protector
This tool is in the form of a pipe consisting of PVC pipe, union pipe, and also flexible pipe. All three make electrical installations at home tidier.
Power Tools You May Need
In addition to the list above, you may also need power saving and enhancing tools. For some circles it may still be necessary because it can save on the tax burden every month.
1. Saver Tool
The way it works is to withstand the load generated by electronic equipment. In other words, your electronics are forced to work under normal conditions because the power is manipulated.
2. Power Booster
This tool promises the consumption of power consumption without increasing the cost of power consumption. It looks like several series of tubes filled with capacitors equipped with cables, plugs and sockets.
Ensure electrical safety at home by only using electrical products that meet recognized standards. Don’t forget, make sure the electrical installation in your home has pocketed an Operation Worthy Certification (SLO).
Starting from switches, cables, to plugs, Sucofindo Laboratory provides accurate electrical installation testing services referring to SNI, IEC, or ASTMM standards.
