You will get efficient and thoughtful service from Sager.

Here are the tips:

Electrical Outlet

1. Type of Installation – choose between Surface type or Recessed Type.
2. Ampere Rating –  usually it is 10A, the voltage are usually 220V~230V.
3. Plug and Socket Type – Look for an outlet that is a universal with ground. In that case even if you will have a round male plug or flat male plug you can still use that outlet. Either 1 gang or 2 gang or 3 gang it depends on your choice.
4. Try and Test It – Get a male plug and insert in an outlet and then you remove then repeat it 3 to 5 times. If the outlet are still tight despite of 3 to 5 times plug in then that’s a good outlet.

Switches

1. Type of Installation – choose between Surface type or Recessed Type.
2. Switch it on and off. If it is still tight then that is a good switch.
3. Try to connect the switch in a bulb then if you turn on the switch then the bulb will automatically light up with no seconds of delay then that is a good switch.

Bonus: For most of my projects,   I used National/Panasonic brands. It is  a bit more expensive compared  to the other brands. The good  thing is that, you can use it more than 10 years with no replacement unless  damaged by unexpected circumstances.
