The miracles of modern technology are fantastic for what they allow us to do. We can stream music play-lists while watching a YouTube video on how to cook a meal. Our phones are capable of controlling nearly every electronic device in our home and car.
The downside of this technology is the tangle of USB chargers that collect in boxes and drawers that no longer have a home.
Thankfully, home designers and engineers are working to keep pace. The standard wall outlet in your home can now be... updated to include a USB port.
A Word of Caution
Professional installation by a qualified electrician is crucial when it comes to working with any electrical system. While there are a number of websites which promise to teach you how to install these things yourself, it should not be done without a professional.
Consider the Proper Amperage
Outlets with a 15 amp rating are for the standard 120v outlet. A professional electrician can help you decipher whether or not the updated outlet has the right amperage for the USB, which can get tricky when installing for multiple ports.
Dual or Single Configuration Ports
Artisan Electric can provide you with an electrician in Portsmouth, NH and surrounding Seacoast area. We can update your outlets with outlets that have only the USB port, or an outlet that has both a USB and a standard 120v outlet. We recommend getting the dual configuration, because, why limit yourself when installing an update like this?
