What happens on the day

Socket installation in Burton upon Trent starts with where each new outlet needs to sit, then moves through cable work, fitting and testing in that order. Only the circuit being worked on loses power, and only for part of the visit.

  • Where each outlet goesThe visit starts by confirming where each socket or switch needs to sit and which circuit will feed it. The consumer unit, the box that houses the breakers and safety switches, is checked so the existing circuit can safely carry the extra outlet.
  • Cable work and back boxesCable runs to the new position under the floor, through the loft space or inside a stud wall where possible. On solid brick walls a neat channel is chased into the plaster, and the metal back box that holds the socket is set level and flush.
  • Sockets wired inThe faceplate is connected to the cable and screwed to the back box, whether a standard double socket, a single upgraded to a double or a socket with USB charging points. Switches and fused spurs for fixed appliances are fitted the same way.
  • Testing and handoverTest instruments check the polarity, earth continuity and insulation resistance of the finished work before power goes back on. A Minor Electrical Installation Works Certificate records the readings, and dust and offcuts are cleared before leaving.
