13A 230V UK Domestic Plug White
230V electricity can be dangerous. When installing a 13A 230V UK Domestic Plug White it is highly recommended that you seek the assistance of a professional electrician.
How to wire a 13A 230V UK Domestic Plug White:
- Firstly, using a screwdriver, unscrew the three screws located at the bottom of the plug. This will open up the plug and reveal its internal components.
- You will see three wires inside the plug – a brown wire (live wire), a blue wire (neutral wire), and a green and yellow wire (earth wire).
- Strip off approximately 1cm of the outer insulation from each wire to expose the inner wires. Twist the inner wires to prevent them from fraying.
- Next, take the brown (live) wire and insert it into the hole on the right pin. Tighten the screw to secure the wire in place.
- Take the blue (neutral) wire and insert it into the hole on the left pin. Tighten the screw to secure the wire in place.
- Finally, take the green and yellow (earth) wire and insert it into the hole on the top pin. Tighten the screw to secure the wire in place.
- Once all three wires have been securely fastened to the pins, push the internal components back into the plug and screw it shut.
- Congratulations, you have now wired a 13A 230V UK Domestic Plug!
