28.06.2024 20:05

We will not be mistaken if we say that the comfort of life of a modern person is directly connected with electricity.

Refrigerator, TV, microwave oven – these and other household appliances and electronics need sockets.

If you miscalculate the number of sockets at the installation stage, the problem can only be solved by using an extension cord.

To prevent such a situation from arising, use the approximate calculations for premises prepared by the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino .

Bedroom

There should be up to 5 sockets in this room, with 4 of them next to the bed – to power lamps and smartphones. The fifth is best left by the door – for the vacuum cleaner.

Living room

The number of sockets is the same as in the bedroom – 5. Here, power supplies will be needed for the TV, air conditioner and other equipment.

Bathroom

There should be up to 3 sockets in the bathroom, which are usually needed to power the washing machine and the boiler.

Kitchen

Let's return to the number 5, which has become magical for us - it can be even more, because there is a lot of equipment in the kitchen: a refrigerator, a hood, an oven, a microwave, a TV, etc.

Earlier we talked about what can be used to decorate a kitchen backsplash.
