The Leaf-Chronicle, Clarksville, Tenn. Sunday, September 22, 2002 Electrical energy most homes going Page F4 On the House ers to wrap the freshly stripped end of the wire around the terminal screw. The loop should be made clockwise to correspond with the direction of the screw when it's being tightened. Connect the black wires to the brass terminal and the white wires to the white terminal. If the existing outlet is grounded, connect the green or bare wire, to the hex-head screw.

Tighten the terminal screws until they are snug, and then secure the receptacle to the box with the screws provided. Complete the job by installing a new cover plate. Note: If your home contains aluminum wiring, make sure to purchase devices that are UL-Listed for direct connection to aluminum with the COALR or AL-CU markings. Turn the power back on and use an electrical tester to check your work. For more home improvement tips and information visit our Web site at www.onthehouse.com.

cles give a room a neat, clean and uniform look. Many different types of receptacles can be found in the average home. Each has its own arrangement of slots that accept a specific type of plug. The slot arrangement is often an indicator of the voltage supplied by the receptacle. Most American homes contain receptacles that supply both normal and high voltage.

Normal voltage ranges from 110 to 125 volts, while high voltage ranges from 220 to 250 volts. Normal voltage powers lights and small appliances such as television sets, clocks and radios. High voltage is used to power large appliances such as ovens, stoves, air cloths dryers and water heaters. Unlike normal-voltage receptacles, high-voltage receptacles usually are replaced only where there is a safety issue or to accommodate an appliance with different amperage and almost never for aes What do a cool home, a chilled beverage, a television show and clean clothing have in common? They are all made possible by some form of energy. For most Americans this source of energy is electricity.

For many people, contact with electricity is limited to flicking a switch, inserting an electric plug into an outlet or changing a light bulb from time to time. Others, however, are more adventuresome, and will attempt to replace an old light fixture with a new one. Others will go further yet replacing old, outdated or unsafe receptacles. Making your home safer is the best reason for replacing an old receptacle. Such a receptacle could be an accident waiting to happen, as wires become loose and the put-let becomes worn over time.

Before the early '60s, it was standard operating procedure to install ungrounded (two slotted) receptacles. Today, code requires electrical thetic purposes. When it's time to replace a 220-volt outlet, your best tool is your telephone. Use it to call a qualified electrician to perform the work. Normal (110-volt) receptacles are less intimidating and can be fast and easy to replace, provided you are mindful of which color wire connects to which terminal.

The first step in -replacing a receptacle is to determine the amperage rating of the circuit at the main or service panel (subpan-el). Purchase a replacement receptacle with the same amperage rating. For example, a 15-amp, 125-volt receptacle should be replaced by a like kind. It also is the right time to replace a two-slotted ungrounded model with a three-slotted grounded model provided there is a metal grounded box. If no means of grounding exists, an efficient means of accomplishing this is to install a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI).

A GFCI will not prevent shock, but will render relatively harmless. Other means of grounding an ungrounded system should be performed by a qualified electrician. Before attempting any electrical work, turn off the power by flipping the breaker or removing the fuse for the circuit Use a circuit tester to make sure that both of the outlets in the receptacle are "dead" (without power). Sometimes each is wired to a separate circuit Next, remove the cover plate and outlet mounting screw which is located immediately beneath the cover plate. Inspect the old outlet to determine the metal link between the two outlets has been broken off.

If it has, snap off the one on the new outlet. Using a screwdriver, remove the wires from the terminal screws. If the existing curved end of the wire is brittle or damaged, snip it off and strip the wire about one half-inch back. Use a pair of needle-nose pli PROPERTY TRANSFERS The Carey Bros. outlets to be grounded to prevent shocks, fires, and damage to appliances and motors.

Proper grounding reduces these hazards and can also minimize damage from lightning. Grounded receptacles have three slots. Improved appearance is another benefit of outlet replacement, doing away with paint-spattered outlets and cracked covers.
