Should home decoration wires run above or below ground?
Should home electrical wiring be routed above or below the floor? When wiring a house, electrical and plumbing work is a crucial part of the renovation. Many people wonder whether it's better to place the pipes and wires above or below the floor during the renovation.
Should home electrical wiring run above or below ground?
When wiring during renovations, water and electricity modifications are a crucial part of home renovation. Many people are curious about whether water pipes and electrical wires should be placed above or below ground during wiring.
① Wall routing
Advantages:
1. After pipeline installation, it is not easily damaged during later construction and is easy to protect during construction.
2. When problems occur with the wiring and repairs are needed, damaged walls are easier to repair than floors.
3. Saves space height, does not require large-area ceilings, and saves renovation costs.
Disadvantages:
1. It will cause extensive damage to the wall, increasing the possibility of wall cracks during later plastering.
2. Wall wiring is horizontal and vertical, resulting in a large number of corners, greatly reducing the possibility of adjusting the wiring.
3. Too many pipelines on the wall greatly affect the installation of later wall decoration devices.
4. Too many loops will increase the circuit length, which will increase energy consumption in the long run.
② Ceiling routing
Advantages:
1. After the wiring is laid, it is not easily damaged during later construction and is easy to protect during construction.
2. The wall will not be damaged too much, and the possibility of later wall paint cracking will also be reduced.
3. If the wiring is not loose, when problems occur with the wiring and repairs are needed, the ceiling and wall are relatively easier to repair than the floor after damage.
4. Adjustable threads can be implemented without damaging the decorative surface during inspection and repair.
Disadvantages:
1. Because most houses now are frame structures, there are many beams on top. When the circuit passes through, it will inevitably cause more or less damage to the beam structure. If it is not damaged, walking under the beam will inevitably cause the ceiling to lower the height, making the space feel cramped.
2. Most switches and sockets are below 1.3m, so the circuit coming down from the ceiling affects the wall decoration equipment above 1.3m, and most wall decoration equipment is installed above this height.
3. In order to hide the pipes, a large amount of ceiling is inevitably added, which will reduce the space height and increase the renovation cost.
③ Floor routing
Advantages:
1. Convenient wiring, easy to adjust wiring.
2. The wall will not be damaged too much, and the possibility of later wall paint cracking will also be reduced.
3. It will not affect the installation of other equipment on the wall in the future.
Disadvantages:
1. After the wiring is completed, attention should be paid to the protection of the pipelines during later construction to avoid damage during construction.
2. When pipes pass through, it may increase the thickness of the floor.
3. When the wire is not loose, it indicates that there is a problem with the circuit. If repair is needed, it may damage the floor, and restoration is relatively troublesome.
When wiring during renovation, choosing ceiling wiring can effectively avoid water pipes, water heating, etc. on the ground. If the water pipe leaks, it may affect the wiring. In case of a fire at home, it will seriously threaten the safety of the family. If you need to test or repair the circuit, it will be troublesome to run it on the ground. You have to pry open the tiles or wooden boards on the ground to repair it. If the waterproof layer is accidentally damaged when prying open the ground, not only the cost of repairing the wires, but also the waterproof layer needs to be redone, so careful consideration is needed.
