 Sefty Tips fɔ Instɔl Ilɛktrik Waya 

 

Ilɛktrik waya kin denja if dɛn nɔ yuz am di rayt we, ɛn dis kin mek pɔsin shɔk, faya, ɔ di ikwipmɛnt dɛn kin pwɛl. Ɔltɛm, put sef fɔs bay we yu fala di lokal ilɛktrik kɔd dɛn (ɛgz., NEC na di US) ɛn kɔnsul pɔblisha dɛn we yu gɛt dawt. Dis dɔŋ ya na wan big list fɔ impɔtant advays dɛn:

 

·  Ɔltɛm ɔf di pawa bifo yu wok pan ɛni waya.  Luk fɔ di men breka ɔ fiuz bɔks ɛn ɔf di sɔrkwit. Yuz wan nɔ-kɔntakt vɔlɔt tɛsta fɔ kɔnfirm se di pawa dɔn ɔf—ivin afta yu dɔn flip di switch. Lɔk ɔt ɛn tag di breka fɔ mek i nɔ aksidɛntal riaktiv.

 

·  Nɔ ɛva ɔvalod sɔrkwit ɔ yuz waya dɛn we nɔ saiz.  Kalkul di lod (amps) fɔ di sɔrkwit ɛn mach am to di waya gej (ɛgz., 14 AWG fɔ 15-amp sɛrkyut, 12 AWG fɔ 20-amp). We yu lod pasmak, dat kin mek yu ɔt pasmak; yuz di fɔmula: Pawa (W)=Vɔltɛm (V)×Kɔrɛnt (A) ɛks{Pawa (W)} = ɛks{Vɔltɛm (V)} imes ɛks{Kɔrɛnt (A)}Pawa (W)=Vɔlt (V)×Kɔrɛnt (A) Fɔ wan standad 120V sɔrkwit, de ɔnda 80% pan di breka rɛytin fɔ kɔntinyu lod (ɛgz., 12A maks pan wan 15A brɛka).

 

·  Inspek waya ɔltɛm fɔ si sayn dɛn we de sho se dɛn dɔn pwɛl ɔ dɛn dɔn west.  Luk fɔ si if i dɔn rɔtin, i krak, i dɔn chenj in kɔlɔ, ɔ if i dɔn rɔtin. Chek jɔnkshɔn, ɔlt, ɛn aplayans ɛvri mɔnt. Riples di pat dɛn we dɔn pwɛl wantɛm wantɛm—kɔpa we de na do kin mek di tin dɛn we de nia yu gɛt spak ɛn layt.

 

·  Yuz di rayt kɔnɛkta ɛn tul dɛn we yu de instɔl.  Employ waya nat, krimp kɔnɛkta, ɔ tɛminal blɔk we dɛn rayt fɔ di waya tayp (ɛgz., kɔpa ɔ aluminiɔm). Strip waya dɛn to di ɛksaktɔ lɔng (usually 1⁄2–3⁄4 inch) yuz waya stripa. Avɔyd tep nɔmɔ fɔ splays; tork skru to manifakta spɛshal fɔ mek kɔnɛkshɔn nɔ lɔs.

 

·  Haya laysens ilɛktrishian fɔ kɔmpleks waya projɛkt dɛn.  Dis inklud nyu sɔrkwit, panɛl ɔpgrɛd, ɔ wok na wet/damp eria. DIY fayn fɔ simpul wok dɛn lɛk fɔ riples di ɔutlet dɛn, bɔt di wan dɛn we sabi du di wok de mek shɔ se dɛn de fala di lɔ ɛn dɛn gɛt inshɔrans kɔvarej.

 

 Ɔda Ki Tips dɛn 

 

·  Grɔn ɔl di sɔrkwit dɛn fayn fayn wan.  Kɔnekt grɔn waya (bare ɔ grɛn) to di grɔn bɔs we de na di panɛl. Yuz GFCI ɔlt dɛn na kichin, batrum, ɛn na do fɔ trip pan grɔn fɔlt.
