That the first wiring or plaster, consider the pros and cons

So you've decided to make major repairs in one room and start to trim space in the new house, and sooner or later you will be faced with a choice: to pave the wire harness to plastering walls or pave the road for a ready walls. Today, there are three approaches to this dilemma, and this article will be voiced pros and cons of all the ways that will allow you to choose the option for your specific case.

Three main options lining the rough wiring:

1. Laying up plastering walls.

2. Laying after plastering the walls.

3. Combined embodiment.

Most of the experts immediately otmetut "1" and "3" option and say that the only true option is only wiring after plastering, but does so really? Let's investigate.

We compare the first and second embodiments

plaster

So, first of all consider the change in the layer of plaster. There are craftsmen who will argue that it is much easier to route wires on prokinut still plastered walls and not to spend money on the gasket cutting grooves.

This statement has to somehow be justified if it is already known that the thickness of the plaster will be more than 2.5 cm. In other cases, the wiring on the walls of the unprepared will not only increase the cost of cables, but also an increase in material consumption (solution, cement), which together lead to the growth of the price tag for plasterers brigade.

Also note that cause the electrician will have at least twice as expose Enclosures will be simply impossible.

Therefore, it will be much easier to spend money on the gasket cutting grooves, especially among professionals always have a special tool (wall chaser), which It would pave the road for a very short time, and the use of the construction of a vacuum cleaner to avoid unnecessary contamination of the concrete room dust.

Of course, to re-make the wall perfectly smooth appearance will have to invest in additional plaster walls.

Readability tracks and cable damage

So, if the first argument has not delivered you out of the desire to make the wiring to plastering, let us consider the following aspects. Have you ever heard of such a thing as the readability of the tracks? This is when visually shows where the cable.

And if you is wired to the plastering and various on-site teams work, the example just Drywall simply it is not clear exactly where the cable is laid, and given that in modern wiring a lot of cables and damage them quite easy.

Of course, before finishing, you can fix the wires laid, for example, a smartphone, and then just give the masters of photography. But it still does not guarantee that the wires are not damaged.

The saddest thing is that such damage may not show up immediately, but already in service areas, when all the finishing work will be completed for a long time.

Installation Enclosures and the rest of the fittings

Enclosures correctly position without knowing the final location of the plaster layer is almost impossible. In this case, there is a "guesswork" and well, if it turned out that Enclosures are recessed into the wall, there is help special inserts and longer screws. But it is quite a different situation if Enclosures stick out from the wall.

Moisture in the junction box

Another drawback of the posting before the plastering is that the junction box can get quite unnecessary moisture, leading to oxidation of connecting points (if you do not have welding or soldering), and at the further operation will cause overheating of the junction, which may lead to sad consequences.

combined method

Some master actively use so-called alternative (combined) variant, wherein the cable to be laid by plastering of the walls and the blocks are mounted Escutcheon after.

Another option - is the installation Enclosures with beacons on their level.

So which method is better

So, to sum up all of the above we can conclude that the least problems you will have if you first will be plaster, and then to seal the wiring in Stroebe. Option to be used if you have used reinforcement of walls and absolutely all the work performed by one team or you do repairs yourself, and you just simply because it is more convenient.
