How to connect 2 sockets

Of all the known electrical switching devices the most common are the outlets whose main function is to make reliable contact with the plug of the device connected to it. The number of used electric appliances with each passing day it becomes more and more, the number of sockets in the room remains unchanged. To lighten the load on one of them allows the connection to the second outlet, and not to pull extra wires from the electric unit, you need to combine them together. To make it easier via parallel connection.

You will need

• - a multimeter or the indicator;
• - soldering apparatus;
• - screwdriver set.

Instruction

1. The parallel connection of the sockets is the safest, and therefore most popular. Besides, it is easy to carry with their hands. But we must remember that it is only suitable for the outlets belonging to the same group.
2. To start off the machine to remove the plug outlet voltage. This can be done by loosening the tube, if used, or by turning off the circuit breakers on the input.
3. Check the absence of voltage. You can use the usual voltage tester, multimeter or indicator. Just making sure there is no voltage, you can remove the cover from the outlet and touch his hand to the bare wires and contacts.
4. Connect the electrical socket parallel connection via junction box or using the terminals. The second method is also called Sleipnir connection. When using the loopback cable is connected to the first unit block and the cable for the next block to be energized from the latter.
5. For slavnogo connections is very important to disconnect the outlets were independent from each other. Connect conductors with zero conductors through terminals or soldering. To the first electrical outlet connect the zero and phase. After that, check the clutching to the ground wire. From him to each of the electrical units will be supplied grounding wire for.
6. To connect the second socket, connect the a phase and working zero from the last unit of the first block and the gripping, infinitely adjustable and connect the ground wire.
7. After works will be finished and working parts are reliable outlets installed in the escutcheon, you can tie the cap and turn on the machine.
