Properly designed, neat electrical connections not only ensure the efficient electrical conductivity but also the durability and safety when using electricity. In this article, Tran Phu Electric Mechanical will guide you through the process of connecting one-core and multiple-core electrical wires as well as the wiring technical standards easily applied at home.

Equipped with electrical wiring tools

To be able to connect the electrical wires correctly and ensure safety techniques, you should prepare yourself the support tools for the wiring such as:

- Wire cutters and strippers: cutters and strippers are extremely important tools for plucking electrical wires. Tran Phu Electric Mechanical recommends that users should use electrical cutting and stripping tools to manipulate more easily and accurately.

- Electric pliers: besides wire cutters and strippers, electric pliers are also an effective tool to help cutting wires, winding, twisting electrical cores easier and more accurately.

- Electrical tape: electrical tape is an indispensable tool, they help wrap electrical joints to ensure the insulation for the wiring junction.

- Electric test pen: an electric tester is used to quickly check electrical leakage from walls and equipment

- Electric meter: electric meter functions as a measuring resistance and a voltage checker.

- Insulated gloves: electrical connections can also create dangerous risks for the connector, therefore we need gloves to make sure the insulation with electrical junctions and current.

The wiring process

The following is a general procedure for connecting wires:

Step 1: Strip off the insulation

Step 2: Clean the core

Step 3: Connect the wire

Step 4: Check the joints

Step 5: Insulate the joints

However, each type of wire has different characteristics that the processing steps can vary. Therefore, you need to know how to connect each type of wire accordingly, ensuring that the connection is durable and able to run effectively. In this article, Tran Phu Electric Engineering would like to share with readers how to connect wires for some of the most common types of wires in the household.

Single core wire

- A single-core solid copper wire: At first, you need to separate the insulating cover, cut off the broken wire, then use a cutter and stripper tool to strip down the electrical sheath exposing the bare copper core about 3cm. Following, put 2 copper cores diagonally and tightly.

- Single or multiple core copper wires that are small and soft: Separate the insulating cover, cut off the broken wire, then use a cutter and stripper tool to strip down the electrical sheath exposing the bare copper core about 3cm. Next, interweave the wires core and twist them tightly together.

Multi-core wire

Cut off the broken wire, then use a cutter or stripper tool to strip down the electrical sheath exposing the bare copper core about 3cm in each core. Then conduct wiring in each core, interwoven the wire fibers in each core and twisted them tightly together. When conducting wiring, you need to connect the same color cores together.

How to wrap electrical joints

After connecting, we need to check the electrical connection, welding the joint when necessary to increase mechanical strength and ensure good electrical conductivity. Then, use insulation tape or pipe to insulate the joint.

Some note when wiring

- Appropriate electrical conductors: the wires need to be of good quality and have an insulated covering and proper cross-sections

- Do not put 2 joints of 2 wires in line together to avoid short-circuit happen when the joints are not of good quality

- Fuses: Main and auxiliary lines and electrical appliances must have right fuses meeting standards including covers, open-link fuse that is suitable for using capacity.

- Electrical switch: for wet places like bathrooms, the switch should be placed outside the room to ensure safety

- Fully equipped with insulating protective devices: rubber gloves, rubber boots, insulating boards, metal electric repair tools such as handle screw, wrenches, overhead protective devices such as helmets, etc.
