How To

How to Install a Receptacle Box

You should follow all guidelines provided by your local building inspector when installing any type or outlet. You should ensure that the wiring is done correctly, and that there are no fire hazards or water damage.

The majority of boxes come prewired, with four wires coming out of the breaker panel. The black and red wires will run through the box to one end, while the white and red wires will go to the other end. It is very important to make sure that you do not use wire nuts and wrap around the screws when connecting these wires together. If this happens, you will probably have trouble getting the wires to stay in place after they are tightened down. You want to allow them to move freely, but keep them tight enough that they don't pull away from their holes.

You might want to add a receptacle to an existing box. This task involves removing the metal top from the box and adding a new cover. After you have made the hole for your new receptacle, and attached the coverplate, you will need to connect all wires to your new receptacle.

A modern light switch can replace the existing receptacles within your home. This task may be possible without the assistance of a licensed electrician. You will first need to remove the old switch and its mounting place. Then, disconnect all wires connecting to the switch. These wires include power going into the switch itself and the ones that supply electricity to the lights in the room where the switch is located. Now you are ready to start the replacement process.

After taking out the old switch you will need to measure the distance from the wall studs, and then mark them with permanent markers. After measuring the distance between the wall studs, mark them with a permanent marker. Depending on the height of your switch, drill a hole for the mounting bracket. Or attach the switch directly using drywall anchors.

After you have taken measurements and marked the locations, you can begin the project. With the help of a friend or family member, you can start removing the drywall surrounding the area where the switch will be installed. Make sure to leave about 8 inches of space between each stud so you don't accidentally cut the cable inside the wall. Next, mount the new switch using appropriate mounting brackets. Attach the cables to your switch and then secure it onto the mounting plates. Once you have installed the switch, turn the power back ON and test it to make sure it functions properly.
