How to make wiring in the house?
How to make wiring in the house with your own hands? First you need to make her plan, think about where the wires will go, where sockets and switches will be installed, whether the wiring will be hidden or open. At the same time, remember that the switches in all rooms must be installed at the same level. This also applies to outlets.
Be sure to draw a plan for where your network will run. Keep this plan in the future, because during the repair it will be easier for you to navigate. Especially if you have chosen a hidden type of wiring.
Then you need to correctly calculate the required amount of materials and choose high-quality wires – they must be made of copper and protected by double insulation. The company Intellektrokomplekt offers just such cables and wires. If there are aluminum wires in the house, it is better to replace them, since the connection of aluminum and copper wires in the future can lead to a short circuit. Insulation is needed for absolutely all wires, even if they will be mounted in hard-to-reach places.

If you install a counter, choose a place for it at the entrance to the house or apartment. It is imperative to install a residual current device (RCD), as well as mount ground loops.
All wiring lines must be laid only in straight verticals or horizontals, without bends or curves, and even diagonal laying is prohibited. With an open method of wiring, it must be placed in special insulating boxes. However, open wiring is used only when, for some reason, it is not technically possible to install it in a hidden way – the latter option is considered more reliable, safe and aesthetic.
