How to use

Step 1: Before installing or replacing the socket, make sure the power supply to that particular circuit is turned off. You can do this by turning off the circuit breaker or removing the fuse that supplies power to the circuit.

Step 2: Decide on the location where you want to install the socket. This is typically installed on a wall where a power outlet is needed.

Step 3: If you are replacing an old socket, remove it from the wall by unscrewing the screws that hold it in place. Gently pull the socket out of the wall to reveal the wires behind it.

Step 4: The socket will have three terminals labelled “L,” “N,” and “E.” Connect the incoming “live” (usually brown or red) and “neutral” (usually blue or black) wires and the earth wire (usually green or yellow/green) to the corresponding terminals. It is important to make sure the wires are connected securely and correctly to ensure safety and proper functionality. Additionally, connect the LED indicator wires to the corresponding terminals, which are usually marked “+” and “-“.

Step 5: Once the wires are connected, push the socket back into the wall and secure it in place with screws.

Step 6: Once the socket is installed, turn the power supply back on and test the socket to make sure it is working properly. You can do this by plugging in a device and turning on the switch to supply power to the socket. The LED indicator light should also light up when the switch is turned on, indicating that the power supply to the socket is on.
