In modern apartments, in addition to electrical, set sockets telephone, television and for the Internet. Replacing the old rosette to a new one is necessary if it is out of order or in the case of acquiring a more suitable model to the interior. How to change the old outlet, if before you did not have to deal with it? With such a question, many who want to save and perform their work independently.

How to change the rosette of a home power grid

Before proceeding with the case, in addition to the new socket, you need to get the following set of materials, tools and devices:

• podrotimer with a diameter of 67 mm;
• alabaster;
• a set of screwdrivers (flat and curly);
• voltage presence indicator;
• passatia;
• boxes (nippers);
• knife;
• chisel;
• hammer;
• small spatula.

Burnt contacts and a melted protective cover - the reason for replacing the outlet

Before deciding to replace the outlet, you should make sure that it is malfunction after disconnecting the voltage. Perhaps it is enough to repair the contacts as shown in the photo.

But if the solution to replace the socket is made, it is important to make sure that the new is intended for current at least 6 A (indicated on the case).

Consider the replacement of an internal type socket for a single-phase network: this task is more complicated than the replacement of the invoice outlet. The whole process can be divided into several stages.

1. In the switchboard, turn off the appropriate automatic: the outlet must be de-energized. In the absence of voltage should be verified using the indicator. If it is impossible to limit access to other persons to the switchboard, a warning plate is set.
2. Unscrew the screws of the protective cover of the socket: most often this screw is one - in the center. A paired outlet - two screws. As a result, we get access to the inner parts of the outlet.
3. With the right and left side there are screws fixing spacer paws in the collapse position. Paws keep the socket in the opposite. It is necessary to weaken the tightening of the screws and remove the outlet.
4. It is required to disconnect the wires from the outlet, for which the screws on the contacts are weakened to which the voltage is supplied.
5. From the "nest" in the wall with the help of a chisel and the passage, the old peavern is extracted and a new one in its place.
6. An old plaster in the "nest" is embossing the chisel and the hammer, if it interferes with the installation of the new opposition.
7. In the bottom of the new opposition, we take the insert for the output of the wiring and install the conversion in place.
8. With the help of aqueous solution of the Alebaster of the sour cream-like consistency, we fix the peavering in the nest.
9. After a few minutes, which are necessary to froze the solution of alabastra, we connect the conductors of the electrical wiring to the contacts of the new outlet, after removing the protective cover from it. It is important that grounding lives (if any) was attached to the central terminal marked with a special sign. Usually, grounding veins in a yellow or yellow-green cable.
10. We establish a new outlet in the opposite and fix it, spreading the spacer paws.

IMPORTANT: Before connecting, there lived a socket contacts, it is necessary to remove the oxide film with a metal with a knife. Contacts should be tightened tightly, in several steps and periodically tighten the clamping screws during operation.

After the end of the work, it is necessarily checked by the correct installation of the installation. To do this, after the voltage is supplied, the tester is used or an electrical appliance is connected to the outlet.

How to change the outlet of the house for a three-phase power grid

The feature of the work when replacing the outlet for the 380 V network is to comply with the phasing. After turning off the voltage, it is recommended to outline the conductors of the electrical cable to connect it to the new outlet in the same sequence. This is important for the work of some electrical appliances.

Tip: If during the replacement of the socket, it turned out that the phasing is violated, it should be restored using it to determine the right order by a special Waf device (Volt-ampere-phazometer).

How much does it cost to change the outlet

Independent replacement of one electrical outlet saves:

• on the challenge of a specialist - 200-300 rubles;
• on payment for disassembling the socket - 100-200 rubles;
• on payment for the installation of peasants and a new outlet - about 400 rubles.

If it is necessary to replace multiple sockets, the amount increases accordingly.

How to change the phone outlet

Telephone sockets are also built-in and overhead. The last - old, "Soviet" sample is used most often with disk apparatus in retro style. There are also combined (with connectors for connectors of type RJ11 and RJ12). Replacing such a socket is performed in compliance with the following rules.

1. The old socket is dismantled without disconnecting from the network: the voltage between the telephone line veins is not enough and does not represent the danger. To dismantle, remove the protective cover by unscrewing the screw through its center.
2. Screws are unscrewed, with which the socket is attached to the wall, the contacts from the wiring are released.
3. To the wall using a double-sided tape and a dowel with a screw, a new socket is mounted with such a calculation so that the length of the telephone wiring is enough for mounting.
4. The telephone line wire (MARK TRP-2 × 0.4 or similar type) connects to the right group of contacts relative to the plastic tag (as shown in the diagram).
5. In the combined type outlets, the telephone line is also connected to the right group of contacts, but in conjunction with the windows of red and green (sometimes blue) colors belonging to the connectors of type RJ11 and RJ12. This ensures the possibility of connecting telephone sets of various modifications.
6. A protective cover is installed.

Modern sockets intended for connecting exclusively connectors like RG11 and RG12 are established similarly.

How to change the outlet for the Internet

The sequence of actions when replacing the socket for the Internet is the same as in cases described above. The difference exists only for the order of connecting UTP cable. It is important to observe the standard bulkhead lived, as shown in the photo.

Connection Core can be performed in two ways: using a special knife and "under the screw" (depends on the type of socket).

Replacing the television socket

The design of the television socket is adapted to connect a coaxial cable and has two contacts: to connect the screen and for central veins. Mounting feature are increased requirements for contact quality. A poor connection with the terminal or short circuit of the central core and the screen will cause the deterioration of the received television signal.

The rest of the replacement of the TV socket does not differ from the installation of an electrical outlet.

Change the radio outlet

The old rosette for radio wire broadcasting changes to a new one in the same way as it is performed in the case of a single-phase electrical outlet, but without turning off the power. The voltage in the radio outlet under certain conditions is also not dangerous.

After dismantling the old case, we fix the Wire of the PTPG brand on the wall and connect to the terminals (for radio). At the same time, the polarity is not required.

At the end of the story about how to change the outlet - a video, a clearly demonstrating process.
