Switches, Outlets and Fixtures
Switches, outlets and fixtures are the
portals through which you receive all the electricity flowing
through your house. Switches allow you to open and close
electrical circuits and outlets provide the plugs to power
electrical appliances. Electrical fixtures provide the variety
of lighting schemes through out your house.
Generally, switches and outlets are installed
after your walls are completed. There are several different
types of switches and outlets available. The ones you select
will have to function properly with your circuit's wiring
scheme. Outlets are pretty standard, but GFCIs are required
in some rooms. You must also consider box size.
Switches can be divided into single pole
and three way switches. Common single pole switches include
light switches. Three-way switches can control one light
from two different places. For example, a light switch on
the top and bottom of a staircase.
GFCI outlets (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter,
also GFI) are designed to prevent electrical shock and allow
you to monitor the electrical currents. You can identify
a GFCI outlets by two little buttons located on the front.
Conventional outlets do not have these buttons. They contain
two plugs and are referred to as duplex outlets.
Electrical fixtures don't have to be the
conventional light fixture in the center of the room. There
are many new ways to enhance your lighting scheme with a
variety of lighting fixtures. Maybe installing a ceiling
fan over a light fixture, mounting track lighting, or introducing
retro-fitting recessed lights.
