How to install a double pole circuit breaker

Turn off the electricity

Before you begin, make sure the power source is turned off at the breaker panel. Simply turn off the main high-current breaker located at the top of the breaker panel.

Test to make sure the power is off

Remove the cover from your breaker panel. To test that the power is truly off, use a two-prong lighted electrical tester and make sure one prong is touching the terminal screw on one of the breakers in your breaker panel. Put the other prong on any other metal object in your breaker panel. If the power is really off, the current tester will not light up.

Strip the wires of the double pole circuit breaker

Take the wire of the double-pole circuit breaker. Using a pair of side cutters or wire strippers, remove 1.3 cm of insulation from the black, red as well as the white wires you find. Do this until you expose the bare copper wires. Make sure the wires are well calibrated to support the amperage of the breaker.

Install the double pole circuit breaker

Install the double-pole circuit breaker on the existing breaker panel. Position the double-pole circuit breaker horizontally by hand. The breaker should face the center portion of your breaker panel. The screws on the back of the circuit breaker should be on the side of the wall. Insert the breaker into the panel and press the front of the breaker onto the bus bar. Press it firmly into place until you hear it click into place, indicating that it is secure.

Wiring of a double pole circuit breaker

The double pole circuit breaker can now be wired. Place the red wire at the bottom of the screws on the back of the breaker. Place the black wire at the bottom of the screw located behind the breaker. Tighten the screws so the wires are secure. Attach the white wire to the neutral rail on the breaker panel. This part of the breaker panel is located to the right or left of the breakers. Secure the white wire under a set of screws also located on the neutral rail. Tighten the screws to secure the wires. The bare copper wire should be connected to the ground rail that holds the copper and green ground wires.

Replace breaker panel cover

Once all wires are secured and in place, you can replace your breaker panel cover. Turn the power back on.

Natalie Jones and the Golden Ship

Part 1/? - A Meeting at the Palace

I’m going to regret this, but this is the sequel to Natalie Jones and the Stone Knight.  The Committee for the Appraisal of Archaeological Peril are given their first proper job - looking after a possibly-cursed mummy.  As it turns out, though, the three-thousand-year-old corpse of Princess Sitamun is going to be the least of their problems...

It was a rainy day in September when the committee for the Appraisal of Archaeological Peril met for the second time at Buckingham Palace.

It was a very informal meeting, but then, their first official gathering, two months earlier, had been pretty informal, too.  They were an ad hoc department, with no regalia, no buildings, no documents, and no particular qualifications for membership other than having been at the Battle of the Tower and the Queen liking you.  There’d been some hints that this new meeting would resolve at least some of these deficiencies, but Natasha Romanov – who for the past few years had been calling herself Natalie Jones and saw no reason to stop now – hoped not too many.  The last thing she wanted was to be part of the pomp and bombast of proper British government.

A valet took her car at the end of the Mall, and two guards escorted her through the sea of tourists’ umbrellas and opened the gate for her.  There, she was just in time to meet a second member of the Committee – Dr. Sam Wilson, their medical expert.  He grinned and waved to her.

“Natalie!” he said.  “How’ve you been?”

“Not bad!”  Nat gave him a quick hug, and then both, with the guards, hurried across the sprawling pavement towards the palace steps.  “I’m still working in the archaeology department at Dundee,” she told him, raising her voice as thunder rumbled overhead.  “I’ve noticed my students are much more polite this year!” Her deeds at the Battle of the Tower, and her past as a Soviet spy, had been international news that summer.

Once on the palace porch the rain could no longer reach them.  Nat took down the hood of her jacket, and Sam pulled his hat off.

“What are you up to?” she asked, as the doormen let them inside.

“I’m working at Raptor Rescue near Eccleshall,” he replied.

“Good for you,” Nat nodded.  “Do the birds complain?”

“Like you wouldn’t believe,” said Sam.  “I thought people were whiny, but no – and the bigger the bird, the more of a baby they are.  There was this Golden Eagle, we named her Margo, who swore up and down that she was dying when all she had was an infected talon.  We amputated the toe and gave her some antibiotics, and she’s back in the wild now.”

“That’s wonderful,” Nat said, smiling warmly as she gave her wet jacket to a butler.  She would be the first to admit that her sense of empathy was badly stunted, but even to her there was something heartwarming about Sam not only getting to talk to birds like Sir Sigurd in the fairy tale, but finding a useful application for it.

The butler took their jackets away, and another man in a uniform entered the red-carpeted foyer.  “Sir Samuel? Lady Natalie?” he asked, startling two people who were more used to being addressed as ‘Doctor’.  “Her Majesty is waiting for you.  If you would come with me, please.”

They climbed a flight of stairs with an ornate, scrolling gilded railing, and followed a hallway lined with mirrors and elaborate candelabras.  Halfway down this they stopped outside a set of carved wooden doors, where three more Committee members were waiting.

These were good friends as far as Natasha and Sam were concerned, and there were more hugs and handshakes as everybody exchanged greetings.  Detective Inspector Sharon Carter was still working for the police in Inverness.  Sir Stephen of Rogsey spent most of his time there, too, in order to be close to Sharon while he took online courses to catch up on the science and history he’d missed while being turned to stone for a thousand years.  The third individual with them was a man in his sixties, short and a little overweight, with blue eyes and shaggy graying hair.   He smiled and raised a hand to greet Natasha first.

“Hi, Ginger Snap!” he said.

“Hi, Dad!”  Nat went up to hug him, too – he held her tight, and lifted her slightly off her feet. “Sorry I haven’t been emailing. It’s been very busy since the school year started.”

“I bet it has,” said Allen Jones, setting her down again.  “I hear you’re giving a talk on the Grail legend at Yale next year.”

“Yeah.  Apparently I’m an expert on it now or something.”  Nat rolled her eyes – the real thing had turned out to be very different from the stories.  “I still need to figure out what I’m going to say… I’ll probably do all the research and throw something together the night before.  How’s Blackpool?”  Allen was working there as an electrician.

“Damp,” he said, “but it’s actually nice to be back to work.  Retirement was getting boring.”

Sam looked around at everybody gathered.  Someone was missing.  “Where’s Francis?” he asked.  The sixth member of the Committee was Clint Francis from Barton-in-Fabis in Nottinghamshire, a man who’d briefly believed himself to be Robin Hood.  The delusion hadn’t lasted long, but when he got his memory back he’d been able to retain the legendary outlaw’s skill at archery.

“He texted,” said Sharon.  “Apparently he missed the train he was supposed to take and had to get a cab, so he’ll be here, just late.”

“That sounds about right,” Nat nodded.

“Guess what?”  Sharon looped her arm through Sir Stephen’s and smiled proudly.  “Steve got a job!”

“Good for him!” said Allen.  “What’s he doing?”

“There is a chapel in the city of Inverness with a very fine stained glass window depicting the martyrdom of Saint Andrew the Apostle,” Sir Stephen explained. “The window was damaged by some godless vandals and since I am familiar with the painting of glass, the city has engaged me to repair it, using as much of the original glass as possible and painting the new pieces to match.”

“That’s perfect,” said Nat.  Before the Lady of the Lake had made him a warrior, Sir Stephen had wanted to be a painter.  Restoring medieval windows was ideal, and would keep the restless man from getting bored.

The carved door opened, and two security men in elegantly tailored suits emerged to check everybody’s identification one last time.  Once they were satisfied, the taller one opened the door wide to show them in.  “Right this way,” he said.  “Her Majesty the Queen and his Grace the Earl of Dudley are inside.”

Beyond the doors was an immense drawing room with turquoise rugs, filled with gilded furniture and hung with portraits of people in wigs and fancy coats, many of them larger than life-sized.  General Fury, the recently-created Earl of Dudley, was waiting just inside.  He greeted them with a smile.  Fury was the head of the CAAP, although he hadn’t yet had the opportunity to do anything in that capacity and appeared to have hoped he never would.  He had also made it known that he hated the idea of having a title, which was perhaps why he was dressed in his military uniform, with an eyepatch.

“What happened to the glass eye?” asked Sam.

“My granddaughters like the patch better,” Fury replied.  “Apparently it makes me look like a pirate.  It’ll get old eventually and they’ll start to miss me popping the glass eye out and back in again.”

“Down here!” called a voice from the far end of the room.

There, on an elaborately carved and brocaded Louis the Fifteenth sofa with many embroidered cushions, was the Queen of England.  It was only ten AM, but she already had a drink in her hand, and was watching somebody feed pieces of haggis to one of her corgis on the seat beside her. She was dressed in a shade of fuchsia that clashed violently with the turquoise carpeting, and made it difficult to look directly at her.  From what Nat knew of the Queen, she’d done this on purpose.

“Nice to see you all looking well,” said the Queen, as they gathered around her – standing, since even knights and ladies didn’t sit in the presence of the monarch without special permission.  “Sir Stephen, you’re looking as offensively attractive as ever.  Where’s the sixth guy?”

“He missed the train,” said Sam.  “He’s on his way.”

“Figures,” said the Queen.  She tossed back the rest of her drink and held out the glass for one of her servants to refill.  “Well, I’ve a lot to do today.  I’m opening a women’s centre in Vauxhall at lunchtime, and then I’m heading up to Suffolk to look for a stud.”

There was a pause.  The Queen waited for one of them to say something, but nobody dared.

“For my stables,” she finally added, disappointed.  “So let’s get down to business.  I’ve got a surprise for you!  Stop looming over me like bloody Stonehenge and I’ll show you.”

The six present members of the CAAP murmured thanks and arranged themselves on the sofas and ottomans around her.  The corgi regarded them with suspicious eyes, but was soon distracted by the haggis again.

“First of all,” the Queen said, “We got these.  Michaels, come here.”

One of the men in suits – evidently Mr. Michaels – stepped forward to hand out leather-bound booklets the size of passports.  The black covers were undecorated, but when Natasha opened hers she found a photograph of herself with her name and an identification number on one side, and on the other a gold badge with a stylized depiction of the White Tower behind the image of Sir Stephen’s magical shield, with supporters. Instead of the traditional British lion and unicorn, these were a gorilla and a sabre-toothed tiger, two of the sculptures that had come to life in the Tower grounds.  The whole thing was surrounded by a wreath of ivy, and at the bottom was a banner that said Committee for the Appraisal of Archaeological Peril.

“The College of Heralds finally came up with something I didn’t hate,” the Queen said, “so we are pleased to present you with badges.  Museums and archaeological sites across the country and our remaining overseas territories have instructions to let you in if you’ve got one of these.  Promise me you won’t use them to rob anyone.”

“I’ll give Mr. Francis his, if and when he shows up,” said Natasha, taking Clint’s badge too.  She looked over at Allen, who was smiling and shaking his head as he looked at his own. He’d ever imagined he’d have anything like it.

“Thank you, your Majesty,” said Fury formally.  He tucked his into his breast pocket.

“Second,” the Queen went on, “we’ve got your first proper assignment.”

That made everyone look up.  Exactly what the CAAP was supposed to do was a little uncertain.  The Holy Grail and Kracness Circle had been some very perilous archaeology, but nobody was sure what else might be in that category.

“As you may have read in the news,” said the Queen, “the Victoria and Albert is giving the sarcophagus of Princess Sitamun back to Egypt, mummy and all.  It’s some sort of gesture of reconciliation, or something like that, although as I understand it, it was the French who stole the damned thing.  It’s being put on a train next week to go to Cairo, where a Dr. Mostafa will take charge of moving it to their museum.  The folks in charge are a bit worried about the whole affair and have requested that you go along.”

“In case the mummy gets up?” asked Sharon.

“Seems so.”  The Queen shrugged.  “It’s a mummy – there’s probably six different curses on the moldy old bitch and they’re taking no chances.”

Nat looked around at the others.  Babysitting a corpse wasn’t exactly the sort of thing they’d had in mind when they agreed to be a part of this organization, but there were probably far worse things they could have been asked to do.

“So we just drop the mummy off in Egypt and then we come home?” she asked.

“You can sightsee a bit.  I won’t stop you,” said the Queen.  “But that’s all the museum folks want, is you tagging along just in case.”

“We can do that,” Sharon decided.

“Absolutely,” Natasha agreed.

“I always wanted to see the pyramids,” said Allen.

“Wonderful!” said the Queen.  “I’ll let them know and they can give you the departure information.  Now, does anybody want a drink before I run off?”

They turned down alcohol, since it was still early in the morning, but did allow the butler to serve them tea and coffee.  The Queen puttered off with her corgi trotting behind her, but Fury stayed a bit to chat – and ten minutes after her Majesty had left, Clint Francis arrived.  He was soaking wet and carrying a Starbucks cup in one hand, and panting as he was escorted in by two guards who were jogging to keep up with him.

“Hi!” he said cheerfully.  “What did I miss?”

What you require to become a plumber in Adelaide?

In Adelaide, one profession which is high in demand is Plumbing. It involves installing, maintaining and repair of different kinds of pipe systems, for pesky leaks and blocked drainage systems. It has ample specialized areas like plumbers, roof plumbers, gas fitters, fire protection workers, irrigation installers, etc.

 It is a highly specialized area that requires certification and training. 75 percent of the plumbers in Adelaide who are currently employed have completed Certificate 111 or Certificate 1V and 18 percent are without post-school qualifications. To be employed as a plumber Adelaide, they must be qualified in any of the following:

 Join in TAFE SA organized course like the Dual Certificate II program in Construction Pathways (Plumbing and Roof Plumbing) and Certificate II & III in Water Operations. 

Or you can get SA Apprenticeship in the related field. 

After completing the course, you are certified and qualified for taking up employment. You can either be employed in small firms or as self-employed. You can also get employed with federal, state or territory government departments that are concerned with public works. 

 As you further gain training and experience, you can work as a technical or sales representative, plumbing inspector, technical teachers, estimators, building contract administrators, purchasing officers, hydraulics constructions, etc.

What Plumbing occupation demands? 

A plumber can undertake tasks like interpreting, drawing and installing piping layouts, repair, and maintenance of piping systems. There might be many different levels of complexities across these specializations. A plumber also has to work with many types of pipe systems and fixtures, for instance, they deal with general water systems, that include basins and toilets, sprinkler systems. A gas fitter operates with gas lines and gas related appliances that include hot water and other space heating systems. 

Typical drainers operate with sewerage and drain water piping systems that include septic tanks while roof plumbers deal with the guttering systems of buildings. Fire protection workers operate on fire detection equipment while Irrigation installers on installation, designing and maintaining reticulation systems that range from small areas like gardens to large areas like golf courses. 

Working environment  

Plumbing is a physically demanding profession, wherein plumber has to remain physically fit, and in many conditions have to work with hands. They have to tackle many practical problems and issues. A plumber is always looking for an opportunity to select from a wide range of specialized areas and other advantages like an opportunity to make money.

How an overseas trained plumber can get work in Adelaide 

A plumber needs a license 

To work as a plumber in Adelaide, you need a license. In Australia, there are only two occupations that demand a license to operate, Plumbers and Electricians. Besides you need to have a license of the state where you are working or intend to work, For instance, if you have a license to work as a plumber in QLD but also want to do any plumbing task in NSW, you need a separate license for NSW. As it require some time to apply for a license, many foreign-trained plumbers work as a trade assistant for a plumbing or construction company. A trade assistant helps qualified tradesmen but he is not qualified for taking up this task. 

 If you are a foreign student studying in Australia or on a working holiday visa in Australia, you need to apply for a license to work in Canada. The initial step to apply for a license depends on which state you intend to apply. Many states require you to apply for an Offshore Technical Skills Record (OTSR) or to get an Australian qualification.  

 If you are staying overseas, you need an Offshore Technical Skills Record (OTSR). OTSR needs an assessor to find out which skills are required to address the gap training. When you have completed an OTSR, you can get a provisional license which could allow you to operate under the supervision of a licensed trade worker. A worker would then take gap training at a registered training organization and complete the work to get a license. 

 Now many plumbing companies in Adelaide offer their plumbing services to both the commercial as well as residential complexes. These companies hire professional plumbers to carry on their operations, and help the people meet the emergency crises like pipe leaking, overflowing drains and many more. 

Among them, Horncastle plumbing is a highly suggested name in the world of the plumbing industry. The company promises professionalism, commitment, and skilled workgroup and that too 24/7 in all their services to both the households and commercial areas.

A working-class suburb tells the story of Mexico’s election

By Dudley Althaus, Washington Post, July 2, 2018

VALLE DE CHALCO, Mexico--Inés Villa has been waiting since childhood for a president like Andrés Manuel López Obrador, who has been swept into office in a landslide by millions of the working poor like her.

Growing up in Valle de Chalco, a once forlorn squatter settlement on the fringe of Mexico City, the 34-year-old shopkeeper and mother of two remembers carrying water from a single community tap, walking to school on muddy, unpaved streets, helping her mother wash clothes in a drainage ditch.

All that began to change when Valle de Chalco was made the poster child of the federal government’s social investments programs three decades ago, by a president accused of winning his election fraudulently. A torrent of money paved streets, installed sewer, water and power lines, built schools.

Such largesse long kept Valle de Chalco and thousands of communities like it across Mexico loyal to the long-ruling Institutional Revolutionary Party, or PRI, and later to its political rivals that emerged through a fitful generation-long transition to democracy.

But that fealty was buried in Sunday’s election--perhaps for good--as voters overwhelmingly shunned the PRI and its traditional left and right rivals to place their faith in López Obrador, a leftist nationalist who is sharply critical of what he calls the “mafia of power”--career politicians and their allies in the business community.

The vote provided a clear signal of how pocketbook politics have become less powerful as the country has experienced rampant corruption, unhinged criminal violence and deep inequality amid an industrial boom.

“The PRI did a lot for this town over the years, really improved things,” said Villa, whose tiny grocery stands across the street from the field where Pope John Paul II once celebrated Mass to underscore the plight of Mexico’s poor. “But as the years have passed you see how they have robbed, cheated, lied and failed.

“A change has to happen,” she said.

“The same parties that assured Mexico a gradual transition to electoral democracy are today roadkill,” said Federico Estévez, a political scientist in Mexico City who has tracked the country’s political transition for the past three decades. “A majority of the electorate has said, ‘Good riddance!’”

“Mexico faces stormy times as government and business duke it out for several years,” Estévez said. But, he added, with luck, the election results can lead to a “long-term foundation for sustained support of the political system on the basis of a new social contract.”

That new contract has begun to flower here, political activists say, as neighborhood groups that long bartered votes for the PRI--and more recently the leftist Party of the Democratic Revolution--for public works have been replaced by politics waged on social media by teens and grandmothers alike.

“When you reach a certain level of well-being, the old politics don’t work anymore,” said Evaristo Lopez, a 53-year-old electrician who joined the Morena party at its founding four years ago. “People have many more sources of information, opinion and organizing now. The old ways don’t have the same power.”

Poverty still prevails here, certainly.

But the flood of government money through the past three decades has transformed most of Valle de Chalco from tin-shacked squalor into a bustling city of 400,000.

But dissatisfaction with the status quo has grown along with the greater prosperity. Freed from worrying about a roof, a bed and a daily meal, many residents have turned their sights to larger issues. López Obrador’s nationalist message and criticism of Mexico’s globalized economy struck a nostalgic nerve with many.

“We don’t love our traditions. We don’t love our culture. We have given up our economy,” said David Villarreal, 31, a dreadlocked bicycle-shop worker who stood two hours under a hot sun Sunday to cast his vote for López Obrador. “It’s a question of national identity.”

Adelaide 24 Hour Plumbing – Tips to Installing a Hot Water System

It’s Monday morning. You’re getting ready to jump into the shower so you can get ready for work, when you turn the handle for “Hot,” and nothing happens – your hot water system has gone out, and as usual, at the least opportune time. So, instead of cleaning yours out from time to time you expect to just chug along and magically make hot water forever. Unfortunately, for many reasons such as rust and corrosion, they give out and need to be replaced. The easiest way to do this is to have someone come and replace it, but if for whatever reason you can’t do that, this will serve as your tutorial for doing it yourself. If you give this a good reading, as well as four to six hours, you can be up and running with hot water again.

1. Pick a hot water heater. There are probably several places close to you where you can buy another hot water heater. That’s not a problem. What you need to do to make this as easy as possible, however, is to pick the same type of fuel that you are already using, whether gas or electric. For the purpose of this tutorial, that is what we will assume. It’s usually not a problem to move up to a slightly bigger water heater if you so desire. The only thing keeping you from this is the amount of clearance between the water heater and the wall behind it. If you have the room for a bigger one, get it if you want to.

2. Check the plumbing. Now you are ready to install your water heater, but before you do that you will need to make sure the connection dimensions are the same. Otherwise, you will need to make adjustments to the connections to make them fit. Hopefully the plumber who did your installation did the job right, saving you a lot of extra work.

Now for a word of caution: When you move your water heater from where it is and bring in the new one, you will probably need help. Water heaters are very heavy, and trying to wrestle one by yourself is foolhardy. Get some help and save yourself some doctor bills. 3. Shut off the utilities. Begin by turning off the water at the main or at the water heater. Next, you need to turn off the fuel source. If you have an electric water heater, either remove the fuse or turn off the breaker. If you have a gas water heater, turn it off at the main or at the tank. Next, drain the tank. 4. Remove and replace the water heater. You should use a level to make sure it it set up properly. 5. Install the fittings, connect the fuel sources, turn on the water, and let it go. You have replaced your hot water heater.

Before you declare the job done, make sure you know the laws regarding installation, since some states have safety requirements and only allow installations by a qualified plumber. For any electrical work you must use a licensed electrician.

If you have an issue with a blocked drain Adelaide or hot water system Adelaide, then you need a 24-hour plumber Adelaide or an emergency plumber Adelaide to service you. You might also reach out to a gas plumber Adelaide to help you. Its important that you have a plumber Adelaide or an Adelaide Plumber and Adelaide plumbers you can trust.

How to install a wall lamp

Turn off the power

Turn off the power to the work area by disconnecting the circuits at the electrical panel.

Mark the wall studs

Using the stud finder, locate the two vertical wall studs behind the drywall between which the sconce will be installed. Mark them with painter's tape. The wall studs are usually spaced 35 cm apart.

Mark the position of the light and switch

Mark with tape the intended location for the light and the wall switch. They should be located between the two supports. The height of the light switch is not prescribed, but generally switches are located at a height of about 120 cm.

Mark and cut the hole for the light box

Round electrical boxes often come with paper templates to cut out in the drywall. Cut these out with scissors, then draw a circle where you want the light to go. A 10 cm hole is needed for a 10 cm can. Cut out the hole by hand using a drywall saw or a hole saw. Remove the drywall cutout.

Mark and cut the hole for the light switch box

Turn the box over and use its edges as a template. Cut out the hole and remove the cutout.

Assess the type of the socket box

Remove the front panel of the outlet from which you want to draw power. Using the non-contact voltage tester, make sure the outlet is de-energized. Unscrew the outlet and pull it out of the box, but leave it connected to the cables.

Determine if the outlet is a legacy receptacle or a nail-in (or screw-in) receptacle:

Old style receptacle: The receptacle looks similar to the one you bought for the wall light switch. It has two screws that can be used to remove the can.

To nail or screw in: these cans do not have the two screws specified on the old can. These boxes cannot be removed without tearing down the drywall.

Removing the old factory junction box

Use a hand screwdriver to unscrew the two screws on the old factory junction box. Turn the screws counterclockwise until the box loosens. Then pull the box into the room by one edge, but leave it attached to the cables.

Run the wires from the light box to the switch box

Fish the 14/2 wire by hand from the light box hole down to the switch box hole. Cut the wire long enough so that about 20 to 25 cm protrude from each hole.

Replacing a defective electrical switch or outlet

Make sure the power is off in the circuit you are working on. Plug a lamp (test it first) into the outlet you want to replace, then turn off the circuit breaker so the lamp goes out. If it doesn't work, find another way to determine that the power is off.

If the outlet doesn't work at all and you're not sure which breaker turns it off, you should turn off the main breaker. This will turn off the entire house, but it's better to be safe than sorry than to risk electrocution. A voltage tester is also useful to determine the voltage.

Lighting fixtures are usually connected to circuit breakers with lower amperage ratings. Leaving the light fixtures on will give you better lighting to work on the plugs and switches. Standard outlets are usually connected to 15- and 20-amp circuit breakers.

If the outlet in a room is protected by a fuse rather than a circuit breaker, make sure the fuse has been removed.

 Conventional outlet plates usually have one screw per outlet and switch plates have two per switch. There may be more than one switch or outlet in a box, but you can replace just one if necessary.

If you need to replace more than one, work on each one so you don't mess up the wiring.

Make a wiring diagram so you know exactly what it looked like before you disconnected anything.

Replacing a socket

Label the wires with some sort of identification on tape that you wrap around each wire. Use the same marker for each wire connected to the same appliance terminal screw.

The "hot" (usually black or red) wires should be connected to the side where the shorter connector slot is located, and generally have gold-colored screws.

The white "neutral" wires should be connected to the side where the larger slot is located, and generally have silver screws.

The copper or green wire connects to the green ground screw, which is attached to one of the outlet brackets.

Depending on the location of the socket in the circuit may be connected to it one, two or more sets of wires. It does not matter which wire of a colored pair is connected to which screw, unless the outlet is controlled by a switch.

Loosen the screws on the new outlet/switch where the wires will be attached. Use a screwdriver to open the screws until you feel you have enough room to pull the wires on, so don't open them too much.

Connect the wires. Make sure the wires completely encircle the screw without touching the plastic edges and without breaking off the wire tips. Pull the wires around each of these screws until they are tight and will not come loose if accidentally pushed back.

Adaptation of the cable size to the current strength of the circuit

When expanding or rewiring a circuit, or when installing a new circuit, it is important that the new wiring be done with conductors that are properly sized for the circuit amperage. The higher the circuit amperage, the larger the electrical wires must be to avoid excessive heat that can melt wires and cause fires. The proper size of the circuit, indicated by the amperage, is determined by several factors, including the intended load of the circuit, the number of outlets or light fixtures, and the length of the circuit. Once the correct amperage is determined, however, it is critical that the gauge of wire used in the circuit is appropriate for the circuit breaker's amperage. How wires are sized If you've ever shopped for electrical wire, you've probably noticed that there are many different types and sizes of electrical wire to choose from. The different wire types are intended for different uses, but with each of these wire types, knowing the correct wire size or gauge is key to making the right choice. Wire gauge refers to the physical size of the wire and is indicated by a numerical designation that is opposite the diameter of the conductors.

Stranded wire vs. solid wire Another point to consider is choosing the type of wire best suited to your needs. Some cables are stranded, while others are made of a solid copper conductor. In installations with metal pipes, solid wire is not always as easy to pull if the pipe has a lot of bends. However, solid wire is usually easier to secure under screw terminals such as those found on standard switches and receptacles. However, 14-, 12- or 10-pole solid copper wires are usually used in cable ducts or NM cables for household wiring.

Testing screw-in fuses

How plug-in fuses work Plug-in fuses have a metal alloy band inside that carries the current of the circuit. In the event of a short circuit or overload where too much current flows, the tape melts and opens the circuit. When this happens, current can no longer flow and the circuit is disconnected from the power supply. This protects against short circuits and overloads that can damage electrical wiring and cause house fires. When a plug fuse blows due to a circuit overload or short, it is often quite obvious, as the metal fuse element inside the viewing panel is obviously melted through or the glass panel is fogged or burned. If in doubt, however, you can check the fuse with a multimeter. Identify the plug fuse Open the fuse panel door and locate the fuse you want to check. If the panel is properly indexed, you can identify the circuit that lost power by looking at the circuit label. You may notice that the fuse viewing window is fogged or burned. Remove the plug fuse Put on safety glasses to protect yourself from the possible flying sparks that may occur if there is a short circuit or other problem in the electrical panel. Carefully grasp the fuse by the outer ceramic rim and turn it counterclockwise to twist it out of the fuse base. Be careful not to touch any metal parts in the fuse panel when removing the fuse. Safe practices for professional electricians often include using only one hand when unscrewing a fuse, as this reduces the risk of fatal electrocution. Test the fuse Place the fuse on a non-conductive surface, such as a laminate or wooden tabletop. If the needle on the meter moves so that it shows little or no resistance, it means that current is flowing through the fuse and that it is working properly and has not blown. However, if the multimeter reads an infinite (100%) resistance value, it means that no current is flowing and the fuse is blown. Install a new fuse If the fuse is blown, install a replacement fuse that is exactly the same type and amperage as the blown fuse. Never install a fuse with a higher amperage rating, as this could cause the circuit wires to carry more current than they can safely handle.

Control box installations and uses

What are plastic electrical boxes?

Plastic electrical boxes have their advantages and disadvantages. Since they are made of a non-conductive material, switches and outlets cannot short out if they touch the side of the box.

You can choose between plastic boxes with nailed-on brackets, complete with nails, or a cut-in version that has tabs that twist out when tightened to hold the box securely to the wall. If the screw lines up when you install the unit, everything is fine. But if the screw is crossed, you have a problem.

Different sizes of electrical boxes

Electrical boxes come in many shapes and sizes. These boxes are used for outlets, switches, ceiling fixtures, junction boxes, and to keep cable connections dry. Depending on the size and shape of the box, electrical boxes hold different numbers of wires. There are round, square, rectangular, flat, weatherproof and extension boxes. Electrical boxes come in plastic and metal varieties. Plastic boxes are non-conductive and relatively inexpensive. They come in a variety of styles that can be either nailed on or cut into place. These recessed boxes have wings that hold the box firmly to the drywall. Metal or steel boxes are more durable than plastic boxes and some, such as bayable boxes, can be connected together to add more devices. These boxes are used in garages and basements, where they are likely to be unprotected and subjected to more wear and tear. Unlike plastic boxes, which break easily, metal boxes are very durable.

How to combine gangable boxes

To combine two or more gangable boxes, you must first remove one set screw from each of the boxes that hold the side plates. Use a screwdriver to remove the screws and set them aside for the reconnection process.

Weatherproof electrical boxes

There are several methods to connect an electrical outlet to the outside of your home. One is to cut a standard junction box inside the wall and expose only the opening of the box to the outside. Then, after you add an earthed outlet, cover the outlet with a gasket and cover plate to seal the connection to the wall.

Safe removal of a circuit breaker

Turn off the main breaker

Make sure the floor and electrical panel are completely dry. Use paper towels or rags for the area if necessary. Open the door of the electrical panel. Stand to the side of the electrical panel and turn the main power switch to the OFF position with one hand. This will turn off the power to all circuits in your home.

Unscrew the control panel cover

Use a cordless drill or screwdriver to remove the screws from the panel's outer cover. Support the cover with your free hand to hold it in place while you unscrew the last screws to prevent the heavy panel from falling off.

Note: Some service panels have a cover that encloses the door. Others have a door that is mounted directly to the panel box and a cover that is inserted into the box.

Remove the cover

Using both hands, tilt the cover away from the panel and set it aside. Since you turned off the main breaker, the individual branch circuit breakers and their wiring are de-energized, but the power supply wires and their terminals are still energized - do not touch them.

Checking for current

Identify the breaker you are removing and touch the tester to the wire connected to the breaker. No voltage should be detected. If the tester indicates voltage and you are sure you have turned off the main breaker, carefully replace the panel cover and call an electrician; the panel has serious safety problems.

Turn off the branch circuit breaker

Turn the breaker you want to remove to the OFF position. This is a redundant step because the breaker is not receiving power from the panel. But it's a good idea to make a habit of turning off breakers so it becomes a routine procedure.

Tilt the breaker back

Disconnect the breaker from the busbar by gently tilting it away from the center of the panel. It should pull out easily by hand. Do not use any tools.

[helloemergencyservices]

Installation of recessed lights

First, turn off the breaker that controls the circuit you will be working on. Use a non-contact voltage tester to check that the power is off.

If there is a breaker that controls an outlet, you should use it for the recessed lights. Locate the outlet, wire it to provide constant current, and wire the wire coming from the switch to provide continuous current. Use wire nuts to close and secure the electrical connections. Remove the electrical box from the wall.

If there is no switch, you will need to install one. Find a suitable location for an electrical outlet near the door and use a hole saw to cut out the drywall. Find an outlet nearby from which you can run a wire to the switch. Drill through the studs with the flexible drill bit and run the cable from the switch locations to the outlet. If necessary, remove the wires from the outlet and connect them to the new cable with short jumper wires. Strip the ends of the wires with the wire stripper, twist them with the wire stripper, and seal them with wire nuts. Strip the other ends of the jumper wires and attach them to the socket.

Use a small mirror to look into the wall cavity at the switch location to make sure there are no pipes, wires or other obstructions.

Attach the fixture and hole saw to the drill and drill the holes for the recessed lights.

Run the tape from the switch position through the top plate into the ceiling and to the nearest light position. Attach a wire to the tape and pull it through the wall back to the switch position. Route the wires from light fixture to light fixture using a similar procedure.

Remove the sheathing from the wire at each lighting location and strip the ends of each wire. Make electrical connections in junction boxes at each luminaire and attach box to ceiling trim. Connect the luminaires to the junction boxes and mount them in place.

Feed the wires at the switch through the junction box and mount them in place. Using the wire stripper, remove the sheathing from the wires and attach them to the dimmer switch. Attach the switch to the breaker box and install the cover plate.
