The circuit breaker connecting the one-button and sockets in the terminal box

When the repair is almost always a need to transfer switch to a different location. In this case, the connection scheme used elementary one-button switch. In this article I will discuss in detail how such a scheme is going in two-wire network, as well as combined in one box switch and socket.

Important. Before any work relating to electricity, you must first de-energize the workplace. To do this, disable automatic feeding the premises, if such is not present, turn off the general introductory machine. After that, we take the meter or the indicator and check the absence of voltage, and only then you can start working.

required tools

To do the work, you will need:

1. Switch.

2. Junction Box (if installed a new connection).

3. Cable.

4. Insulating tape or heat shrink tubing.

5. Soldering iron.

Wiring diagram

Run the power supply cable connections and the lamp itself is not absolutely no difficulty, therefore, we will immediately proceed to consider the connection to the switch box.

Remember a very important rule:

in this circuit breaker it must pass through exactly phase. Thus, the "rip" it must live wire, but not zero.

In case, if the switch will turn off zero, the wiring will still be energized, which is quite dangerous.

Now I will explain why it is dangerous. We present a simple and rather banal situation: you only need to replace a light bulb, you "klatsat" switch and think that all light is de-energized. Twisting the lamp and accidentally touch the live parts of the cartridge and cap lamps and you can strike shock.

So, in our joint junction box "met" three cables:

The power supply cable - from the distribution panel,

The cable on the switch,

Cable running directly on the bulb.

So, you and I need to switch over the switch phase cables is lived according to the color code. In this case, zero is blue and white phase.

Therefore, blue (neutral) wire from the electrical panel, is directly connected to the neutral conductor, on reaching the lamp and the white wire connects to the white wire to the outgoing switch, blue cable that came with the switch, connect the white wire to the outgoing light.

Thus, we are with you "break the phase wire is through the switch.

But that's not all, since according to the SAE simply unacceptable twisting in the junction box, and you and I need it either solder or weld. In this example, the twisting is soldered using a soldering iron.

With other means connecting wires in raspayachnoy box you can find in submission.

And only then we can isolate the bare ends of the wires and put them in a box.

This is how you are connected and one-button switch in the junction box. But this connection is true if you have lighting and sockets are separate power line.

But our realities are such that most of the homes in one box is connected and the lighting and sockets. Below is a look and a connection option.

Connect the socket and switch in one box

In this embodiment, the switch circuit is connected is identical to that described above, but the socket is connected in parallel supply conductors:

Since in this case the connection is already three wires, then to ensure proper contact as reliably curl and propaivaem compound, but the best one is welding or crimping.

After that, just isolate the exposed part of the wire and placed them in the junction box. All that you have completed the connection one-button lamp and socket in one junction box.
