How to hold the wiring under the stretch ceiling ?

Requirements for electrical work

The first thing I would like to tell - how to make wiringa stretch ceiling secure.As you know, live conductor can be heated, especially if you choose the wrong cable cross-section for power and current.

If installation electricians will be made on a combustible surface, for example, a tree, you must consider the following points:

• wiring must necessarily take place in a steel tube or sleeve which, when the cable heating prevents ignition of the wooden floors, the walls, or the same tensionceiling.
• joints between pipes need to further protect the seals from non-combustible material.
• cable wiring under the stretch ceiling must be non-combustible, ideally even with low smoke emission.In this case, suitable VVGng cable VVGng-ls or imported conductor - NYM.

If you decide to lay the wiring for a concrete ceiling, there is already in place steel pipes can be used corrugation.Its purpose - to protect the wiring from the spread of flames in case of short-circuit protection as well as film stretch ceiling from melting under strong heat conductor.Here it should be noted that there is no need to protect the corrugated tube cable to install spotlights, becausein this case the electricity goes through a step-down transformer that converts 220 volts to a safe 12 V low voltage When there is practically no heating cable, when properly perform wiring.

Features wiring electrical

So now let's talk how to make wiring a stretch ceiling with his hands.The steps below will be made on the installation of concrete floors, which occurs both in apartments and private homes.

Stages of electrical work:

1. Draw a diagram of the wiring harness to the ceiling of the electrical panel.Please note that the cable should be held strictly parallel and perpendicular to the junction of wall and ceiling.Junction boxes must be placed so that they can be always allow access for repairs and maintenance.Do not neglect the preparation of mounting schemes, becausewithout it you can turn out the confusion and the wiring harness is not only inconvenient, but also unsafe.A comparison of good and bad wiring options you can see in the photo below.
2. Transfer the drawing onto the surface using a builder's level (usually a laser).
3. With the gun do dowel holes clamps or clips (depending on what you will use to mount the wiring).The distance between fasteners must be such that the wire after mounting is not slack.As a rule, accept the distance of 50 to 90 cm.
4. Install junction boxes according to the scheme, clips and secure the wiring harness under the stretch ceiling.First, the wire is necessary to pass through the corrugation using established within broach (wire).Thereafter, corrugated pipe attached to the clips and is connected to the junction box.Release the wires from each end of the corrugations must be at least 15 cm to connect the conductors, as shown in the photo.
5. Connect the wires together and check by visual inspection of the correctness of the work performed, as well as a multimeter (to determine if the wiring is shorted).

That's the technology of electrical work.As you can see, to carry out the wiring under the stretch ceiling with his hands is not difficult, the main thing - be careful and take into account the recommendations provided.We strongly recommend to immediately view the video example, showing the kind of finished wiring wire inclination.

Alternative

overlap so you know how to independently carry out the wiring pad in the other cases, floors - reinforced concrete and wood under the stretch ceiling nowwe will talk briefly about the nuances of the installation.So, consider the following advice from professionals to wiring was safe and easy to maintain:

• If the overlap is represented by plate with voids inside, better to hold the cable in the existing voids which are usually located every 100 - 140 mm.Shtroblenie by wiring in this case is strictly prohibited.You do not want to use the void, we can open the wiring using the corrugation or cable channels.
• Joining metal pipes for wiring the electrical network on the wooden ceiling must be welded.Junction boxes in this case must also be made of metal, with a degree of protection not less than IP 65.
• to plaster crumbled not in a place of occurrence of the cable, which will be at least a little, but still warm, use an additional reinforcing mesh in mounting locationswiring.
• The cable is under tension ceiling without corrugations generally not recommended due to concerns that there is always a danger of flooding the neighbors from above.In order to once again protect the cable from moisture, be sure it is still placed in the corrugation, especially in the bathroom.

That's all that I wanted to tell you about how to carry out the wiring under the stretch ceiling.We hope that now you know how to be held electrical work and what to do to household power was safe!
