Electrical Installation

A home electrical installation involves planning, laying wiring, connecting devices like outlets and switches, and implementing grounding systems to ensure safe and reliable electrical service. The installation typically includes a consumer unit or fuse box for power distribution and protection. It also involves wiring in fixtures, connecting appliances, and testing the system to ensure proper functionality. 

​

Here's a more detailed breakdown of everything CMP Electrical will take care of on behalf of our customers:

​

1. Planning and Preparation:

• Circuit Planning: Identify all electrical needs (outlets, lights, appliances) and plan circuits to avoid overloading and ensure efficiency.  

​

2. Key Components and Processes:

• Service Panel/Consumer Unit:

  This is the central hub for power distribution, where electricity is split into circuits and protected by circuit breakers.

​

• Wiring:

  Install wires according to your plan, ensuring they are securely fastened and insulated. Use appropriate wiring types for different areas and devices. 

​

• Connections:

  Connect wires to outlets, switches, and light fixtures according to their specific requirements, following color coding (brown for live, blue for neutral, green/yellow for earth). 

​

• Fixture Installation:

  Install fixtures like light fittings, switches, and sockets in the correct locations, ensuring they are securely fastened. 

​

• Testing:

  After installation, restore power and test the system to ensure everything is working correctly.
