Safety First: Before You Begin

At Sofucor, your safety is our top priority. Please take the following precautions before beginning the installation:

1.Turn Off Power

Always turn off the main power supply at the breaker box before starting any electrical work. Verify that the power is off by testing the installation area with a voltage tester.

2.Use Proper Tools

Make sure you have all the required tools before starting. Using the correct tools ensures a smooth installation process and reduces the risk of accidents.

3.Follow Local Electrical Codes

Ensure your installation complies with local electrical codes and regulations. If unsure, contact your local electrical authority.

4.Wear Protective Gear

Wear safety gloves, goggles, and non-conductive footwear to avoid any risk of electrical shock or injury.

5.Inspect for Hazards

Double-check that there are no exposed wires or electrical hazards before you begin. If you encounter any potential issues, stop the installation immediately.
