With the enhancement of people's awareness of beautification, people gradually realize that the location and number of electric switch and socket determine the convenience of the use of household appliances. The beauty of interior decoration plays an important role. The layout of power sockets should be carried out according to the planned location of indoor household appliances and furniture, and close attention should be paid to the cooperation with related professions such as building decoration to determine the correctness of the socket location. This paper mainly introduces how to plan household switch sockets.

At the entrance hall, at least one light switch socket must be reserved, The wall switch should be divided into two situations according to the decoration: the first situation is that the entrance has a main light and a light strip, so you need to prepare a three smart light switch with  double control, and the other is to do a double control with the main light of the living room. The second case is that the entrance is not ceiling-mounted, and only one main light is installed, so you only need to set up two modern light switches with double-control.

In living room, the TV background wall reserves 2 five-hole universal switch sockets and 1 network cable socket. If you use cable TV, it is recommended to reserve an additional five-hole socket. Leave a five-hole socket on each side of the sofa. Reserve a switch plug socket and a three-hole finger touch switch for the air conditioner reserved hole. In addition, remember to reserve 2 or 3 five-hole sockets on the side of the TV cabinet, so that smart devices such as electric fans, sweeping robots, and routers can be used. The switch type actually depends on the type of light you choose in your home. If you have a ceiling, there are generally downlights, main lights and light strips in the living room. It is recommended to reserve a double light switch to control the light strip or the main light, and then make a double control echoing the position of the hallway to control the main light of the hallway and the living room.

In the kitchen, 10 power switch sockets mainly used for cabinet small appliances, such as rice cookers, microwave ovens, ovens, range hoods, water purifiers, dishwashers, etc. Reserve 4 sockets to facilitate the purchase of new kitchen appliances in the future. Reserve one ceiling light switch. Reserve one switch for operation desk lamp.

In the bathroom, reserve 8 sockets, 2 sockets in front of the mirror (for hair dryers, curling irons, electric toothbrushes and other electrical appliances), 1 socket near the toilet, 1 bathtub socket, 2 water heater sockets. Reserve 1 switch for the front light of the mirror and one switch for the exhaust fan, preferably on the side of the toilet, is convenient.

There are also some precautions for installing sockets and switch. If the socket on the wall is relatively low, cover the socket with a protective cover when decorating to prevent children from putting fingers or other objects into the socket. Electric heating equipment, such as electric stoves, should be moved frequently when in use, away from fabric products, and avoid facing the fabric products for a long time, which may cause a fire.
