Would you prefer backstabbed wires or loose screws on your electrical outlets? Either way, the potential for electrical outlets burning is almost the same. Electrical connections must be tight! This kitchen countertop electrical receptacle outlet from the 1980s was hidden behind an appliance, explaining how it wasn't noticed. Fortunately, there was enough slack on the wires to remain compliant with National Electrical Code Article 300.14, and to install a new GFCI receptacle outlet. https://MrElectrician.TV

I always see a face when I see an electrical outlet. 😶And while making this post I learned that there are 15 types of electrical outlet plugs in use today by most counties. Thank god someone has invented the universal adapters! #emotionaloutlet #playofwords #iseefacesinthings #electricaloutlet #sockets #sliceoflife #tinyeyescomics https://www.instagram.com/p/CAP96IlKaUc/?igshid=34gt74yqoak3

A Guide To Avoiding Electrical Shock

Getting an electrical shock is an unpleasant experience. Remember that as small as 14 milliamps of electrical current can be lethal and a typical plug in nightlight gets more electrical current than that. There is nothing wrong with being handy with your electrical work. It can help you in maintaining your home, help you cut costs by fixing appliances and even prevent household hazards without the need to hire an electrician. However, you also need to take safety seriously if you plan to tinker your electrical system. Basics of Electrical Safety Before you start any electrical work, perhaps one that is required for a home remodel, you need to get your non contact voltage tester first. A live wire has an electro magnetic field that will cause the NCVT to light up and make a beeping sound, which indicates that there is an AC voltage. You do not need to touch an energized conductor for it to function, either. These are sensitive instruments that they give off a signal whenever you go near a voltage source like an electrical outlet, electrical switch,or an energized wire. The first thing you need to do is to prove that your tools are working correctly. Then switch the circuit breaker off. Check at least one electrical outlet on that circuit using the NCVT. If you are living in an old house, never assume that all of the wires in a box are dead even if you have turned off the circuit breaker. In some cases, a handyman uses an electrical box as the junction box and takes wires into it from a different circuit breaker. These wires can stay energized and may even give you an electric shock. What To Watch Out For It is not uncommon in renovation work to expose damaged or dangerous wires or anything that appears suspicious. Some of these may even be lethal. These include knob and tube wiring, burned or partially melted wire insulation or contacts, water leaks in the service panel, or sloppy electrical workmanship by the previous North Myrtle Beach electrician who worked on it. Safety Checklist It is recommended that you use an electrical test tool that is up to the recommended safety standards for the setting where it will be used on. This is commonly not an issue for homeowners but this is an important point that a professional electrician needs to be aware of. You also need to remember that you have to only utilize test leads with shrouded connectors as well as finger guards. You also have to check the DMM leads for physical damage before you measure. It is important to use the DMM when check continuity. Utilize meters that come with a recessed input jack and make sure that the tools you use are functioning properly. It is also best if you do not work alone. If you think you cannot do the job or if it is too complicated for you, then call an electrician right away.

Call NMB Electrician Pros if you need help in installation, fixing, maintaining your electrical system.

Electrical Outlet Orientation: Understanding the Reasons Behind It

Do you ever wonder why some electrical outlets are oriented differently in your home? While it may seem like a minor detail, the orientation of your electrical outlets can actually have an impact on your home’s safety and functionality. The original patent for the “Electrical outlet for three-prong locking plugs,” filed in 1955 by Wilbur R. Smith NEMA, recognized as 5-15(p/r), features a diagram…

You can save power by keeping these types of electrical outlets turned off when not in use. Thus preventing electricity leaking out.. #savepower #powersave #electricaloutlet #saveelectricity #saveelectric #reduceenergy #reduceenergyconsumption #reduceenergycosts #reduceenergybills #reduceelectricbills #plugsocket #cutyourbills #howtosavemoney #powersaver #turnitoff #keepitoff #switchitoff https://www.instagram.com/ianscott555/p/Bwq0cXQFSyT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=uw9wit3sjw88

While necessary and mandated by code of course, often times electrical outlets are unsightly...I was lucky to find this old English cabinet years ago...I popped the back off and it hides one of the outlets on my kitchen counter perfectly ...while not practical or easy to hide them all, this is a perfect solution for one...I have outlets on either end of my island so by covering this one up I’m really not loosing any function...another camouflage I use for many clients is to just hang a picture, a plate or stand a bread board in front of the outlet....unsightly solved!#deborahgibsondesign #electricaloutlet #camoflaugeoutlets (at Greenville, South Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsQj6QQgEE_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=eu5jswerihqa
