Typically, the installation of electrical wiring in an apartment or house is performed in the thickness of the wall and is hidden under the plaster layer.
Nevertheless, over time, “distinguished” by electrical appliances, there are many wires and cables in the house, unexpressed by the original plan. The installation of any modern technical tool, one way or another, requires connection to the mains, regardless of this, this is a new lamp, washing machine or another TV.
At the same time, new wires, as a rule, are laid along the baseboard and everything would be fine, if not only a few “but”.
First of all, open wiring carries a danger. Even if the island of hb was used to isolate all the joints of the wires. Open wiring scattered on the floor can be accidentally damaged. The worst thing is that pets and children have access to such wires. At the same time, the wiring lying on the floor complicates cleaning and does not improve the aesthetic characteristics of the room.
Options how to hide the wiring several.
You can, for example, use special plastic or wooden skirting boards that hide the wiring. Such plinths are called electrical. Instead of skirting boards, you can also use cablecanal. As a rule, it is advisable to do this in cases where the number of wires that have to be “hidden” is very significant.
As for less costly methods, they include a handwheid building of a cable box from improvised wooden planks. The design of a homemade box for electrical wiring is based on two wooden strips. In this case, the height and thickness of one should be 6 and 1 cm, respectively, the second height is 2 cm, and its thickness is equal to the thickness of the skirting boards. In this case, the hidden wiring is placed between the smaller bar and the upper part of the baseboard. Such a box can be decorated depending on your imagination, wishes or interior features. In this case, paint, carpet trims or napkin painting can be used.
