Wiring accessories are used in domestic and commercial wiring and include switches, sockets, lamp holders, plugs, and fuses. Switches are used to turn circuits on and off, sockets provide connections for plugs and light bulbs, and lamp holders hold and electrically connect lamps. Plugs connect to sockets to receive power. Main switches control entire power supplies, with ICDP switches used for single phase and ICTP switches for three phase. Fuses and miniature circuit breakers provide overcurrent protection.

domestic as well as commercial
wiring.
SOME IMPORTANT
ELECTRICAL
ACCESSORIES
▶ SWITCH : Switch is used to make or
break the electric circuit or it is used to
switch ‘’ON or OFF’’ the electric supply.
▶ SURFACE SWITCH : Switches are
mounted on wooden board , fixed over
the surface of the wall.
▶ SOCKET : An electrical device
receiving a plug or light bulb to
make a connection.
Wiring accessori.es are being used in

3. WIRING ACCESSORIES
▶ LAMP HOLDER : A lamp holder is
used to hold the lamp ; and
connect it electrically to supply
terminals , required for lighting
purposes.
▶ PLUG : The plugs are also having
moulded three pins of brass or
any electrically conducting
material. These are also made
of 5amp and 15amp rating.
These are used for taking power
from socket.

4. WIRING ACCESSORIES
▶ MAIN SWITCH : This switch is
used to switch “ON or OFF” the
main supply . These switches are
used to control the whole supply
for a house , office and machine .
In single phase circuit I.C.D.P
main switches are used, whereas
in three phase circuits I.C.T
.P
.
main switches are used to
control the supply.

5. WIRING ACCESSORIES
▶ I.C.D.P. Switch: Iron Clad Double Pole
main switch is used in single-phase supply
circuits. These are available in 15 Amp, 30
Amp, 60 Amps and 100 amperes current
rating. In these switches, either two
numbers of fuse links are provided or a fuse
link and a neutral link is provided.
▶ I.C.T.P Switch: Iron Clad Triple Pole
main switches are used to control the three
phase supply circuit. These are available in
15 Amp, 30 Amp, 60 Amp,100 Amp, 150 Amp
and 250 Amps current rating. Generally
these switches are also known as 3 phase 4
wires main switches.

6. WIRING ACCESSORIES
▶ Fuse:It is the most common and important
type of safety device used for domestic and
commercial installations. These fuses are of
kit-Kat type and are also known as cut-out.
These cut-outs are made of porcelain in
current rating of 15 to 300 amperes. The
material used as a fuse wire is tin, lead, silver,
antimony, copper and aluminium etc.
Copper or lead, tin alloy is mostly used in
ordinary fuse wire.
▶ Miniature Circuit Breaker (M.C.B.):A
miniature circuit breaker is an electro-
mechanical safety device which operate and
disconnect the circuit supply, when the
current drawn from the circuit increases to a
pre-determined value.
These are used in lieu of fuses and can be
fitted in consumer’s distribution board.
