Step 1: Preparation

Before you start installing your home circuit, you first need to make some preparations:

• Shop for the materials and tools you need: wires, switches, sockets, fuses, etc.
• Understand your home's electrical layout: Pinpoint the various rooms and devices in your home that need power.
• Make a circuit routing plan: determine the direction of the circuit line and the location of sockets and switches.

Step 2: Install the mainline

When installing a home circuit, you first need to install the main line:

1. Turn off the main power switch to ensure safety.
2. Measure the length of the desired main line, cut the wires, and strip off the insulation for a certain length.
3. Introduce the main line into various rooms through hidden locations such as walls or pipes.
4. Connect the main line to the main circuit breaker in the power box.

Step 3: Wire and connect the socket

Next, you need to wire the circuit and connect the sockets:

1. According to the circuit routing plan, make a slot in the wall and embed the wires inside the slot.
2. Use insulating tape or wire sleeves to protect the wires.
3. Install the socket box in a suitable location and connect the wires to the socket box.
4. Secure the socket box to the wall and connect the socket.

Step 4: Install the switch

Installing the switch is the next task:

1. According to the circuit routing plan, the wire is embedded in the slot by making a groove in a suitable position.
2. Use insulating tape or wire sleeves to protect the wires.
3. Mounts the switch on the wall and attaches the wires to the switch.
4. Test the proper operation of the switch.

Step 5: Install the fuse and master circuit breaker

Finally, the fuse and master circuit breaker need to be installed:

1. According to the circuit routing plan, install the fuse holder on the power box.
2. Connect the wire to the corresponding location on the fuse holder.
3. Install the main circuit breaker and connect the main line.
4. Test the power supply and safety of the circuit.

Popular science knowledge

The installation of home circuits needs to pay attention to the following popular science knowledge:

• Wire specifications: Choose the appropriate wire specifications according to the electrical load and line length to ensure that the wires are not overloaded.
• Installation height of the socket: In general, the bottom of the socket should be 30~40 cm from the ground.
• Location of the switch: The switch should be installed next to the door to enter the room for easy operation.
• Fuse selection: Choose the right fuse according to the circuit load to protect the wires and equipment.
• The function of the main circuit breaker: The main circuit breaker can cut off the power supply when the circuit is overloaded or short-circuited, and protect the safety of wires and equipment.
