This means that users can conveniently control their outdoor lighting and fans through a dedicated app on their smartphones. Additionally, these smart devices can also be synchronized with voice assistants like Alexa and Google Assistant, allowing for hands-free control and added convenience.
7) Switch Covers & Mounting Blocks
Switch Covers - A switch plate cover is typically employed to enclose electrical switches in gang boxes or to hide exposed wiring. These covers play a crucial role in ensuring safety by preventing unintended contact with any live electrical wires within a house. Exposed live wires pose a potential hazard to human life and should be kept inaccessible to children and pets. Switch plate covers find widespread use in homes to create a barrier that eliminates direct contact with both electrical switches and live wires, thereby minimizing the risks associated with them.
Mounting Blocks - Mounting blocks are employed for the installation of electrical switchgear, power points, and audiovisual products. Their primary purpose is to provide a surface on which these products can be securely mounted. In addition to facilitating the installation process, mounting blocks also play a crucial role in safeguarding the wiring that runs inside them. By utilizing mounting blocks, these electrical components can be effectively installed while ensuring the protection and integrity of the internal wiring.
8) Junction Boxes
A junction box is an enclosure specifically designed for electrical purposes, providing a secure space for one or multiple wiring connections. Its primary role is to safeguard these connections, which often include vulnerable areas like wire splices, from being affected by environmental conditions and unintentional contact.
The junction box acts as a protective barrier, shielding the wiring connections from factors such as moisture, dust, and other potential hazards. By housing the connections within the box, it ensures their safety and minimizes the risk of damage, short circuits, or accidents. The presence of a junction box helps maintain the integrity of the electrical system by providing a reliable and protected environment for the wiring connections.
