Advantages of Adding Additional Sockets
We have all been there, you go to plug in your charger for your phone, but all the electrical sockets are in use and your appliances need to keep running so you quickly fetch an extension cable to provide energy to all your gadgets at once. But did you know extension cables are for short-term use and it can be unsafe to use these for longer periods? It’s so easy to overload an extension cord and the result of this could cause overheating, melting and even fires. Installing additional sockets at your Seaton home will stop the risk of electrical hazards and will safely supply power to all your electrical products at once.
The more sockets in a room, the more options you gain for the layout. If you decide to readjust your lounge and move the TV from one area to another, it may only be possible with the installation of additional sockets. The recommendation when adding sockets to your home is to install an extra two sockets to each room so there is always flexibility of where each appliance and gadget can be plugged in. This also allows room for any extra electrical items you purchase in the future.
Type of Sockets
The most common type of plug sockets are the standard white sockets. These are the cheapest and easiest to install. But did you know you can now get USB sockets? With most devices using a USB style cable, you can plug these directly into a socket without the need of a charging brick. No need for unsightly blocks attached to your wall. USB sockets can be purchased in a white finish, or you could opt for a modern chrome effect depending on your décor.
Why Should an Electrician Add Additional Sockets?
Although not a legal requirement, it's recommend that a qualified electrician should carry out all electrical work in a home, big or small. Without the knowledge and experience of a qualified electrician, you could cause dangers in your home with incorrectly fitted sockets. This could also cause damage to your existing electrical systems which would cost you time and money in the future to fix. Electrical work is risky and there is little reward if you were to fit a socket yourself.

Don’t make life harder by choosing which device to charge first. Install additional sockets to your Seaton home and make room for every electrical gadget.
