How to install a plug

Oct. 22, 2019

Thinking of installing a new desktop, but don't have a place to connect your computer? It seems to me that it is time to install a plug in your room and enjoy the tranquility while you study or work. But, now the problem begins. How can you install a plug yourself without having to seek the help of an electrician? Don't worry, with our Brycus tips, installing a plug will be child's play. And what about the materials? Where can you buy them? Relax and find everything you need in our electricity section. Now that you are calmer, let's start with our class.

How to install a plug
Materials you will need


  • The plug you will install. At Brycus Council we recommend that the surface of this does not protrude too far from the wall in which it is installed to facilitate the placement of furniture around it.
  • Cable with plug. The one of an extension, for example.
  • A cutter and a wire stripper.
  • Cables.
  • Installation begins

1) First of all, we must make sure that there is another plug in the room where we want to install the new one. It does not matter if it is installed on a different wall, just being present will suffice. But why? For the new plug to work we will have to pass cables through it and this will be a very easy task if we already have these cables and a pre-installation.

2) Once we have made sure that the room has an already installed socket, it is time to connect the cables from the existing socket to the one we want to create. To do this, we will have to drill the wall to pass the cables, if there is any obstacle between the plugs, and, helping you with the plug cable, pass it until you reach the destination where you want to place your new plug. In this way, the side of the cable with plug will be hanging next to the old plug and the side with the cables open or visible, it will be right in the area where you want to place the new one.

3) Once we have passed the cables from one socket to another, we must connect them. Do not worry because it sounds more complicated than it is, because along with the plug, you will have included the electrical scheme that the cables must follow to provide electricity to the plug. To start connecting the cables, you will first remove the power outlet from the plug. Then you will have to strip the cables with the help of the wire stripper and connect them to each other and to the socket following the scheme mentioned above and, if you do it correctly, you will have provided electricity to the plug.

4) Finally, all that remains is to screw the socket box to the wall. To achieve this, mark the areas where the screws will go with a pencil and carefully drill the holes. Insert the sockets with the cables and screw the cover on.


What do you need to know before installation?

1) Jede Arbeit, die den Kontakt mit Elektrizität erfordert, erfordert, dass die Person mit großer Vorsicht vorgeht, insbesondere wenn der Stecker in der Küche oder im Badezimmer installiert ist, in Bereichen, in denen Wasser zirkuliert.

2) Es wird bequem sein, den Strom im ganzen Haus abzuschalten, damit es keine Angst gibt.

3) Denken Sie daran, dass die von Ihnen verwendeten Werkzeuge zu Ihrem Schutz zugelassen und in gutem Zustand sein müssen.

4) Es bleibt Ihnen nur, sich daran zu erinnern, dass die Leistung der Geräte und Vorrichtungen, die Sie an das Netzwerk anschließen, nicht größer sein sollte als die, die Sie unter Vertrag genommen haben, sonst können Sie die Installation beschädigen oder verbrennen.

Jetzt, da Sie wissen, wie man einen Stecker installiert, denken Sie nicht zweimal nach, finden Sie alles, was Sie brauchen, in unserem Stromabschnitt und genießen Sie eine gute Arbeit.
