Replacing a Receptacle
Introduction
Share | There are many reasons to replace a receptacle. For example, your current receptacle may not match the décor in your room or the color of your walls. Maybe it is old and unreliable. Either way, it is a relatively quick, inexpensive and simple project.
Make sure that the amp rating of your new receptacle is consistent with the amp rating of the wiring and the breaker or fuse.
Electrical basics are easy to understand, but working on electrical projects can be hazardous. You should always take the proper precautions - turn off the circuit you are working on and use tools with insulated handles.
