Nursery — a special room in the house, if only because of its basic « inhabitants » They are children. And if in the living room, bedroom, study a lot of attention paid to the styles, the presence of the original decorations and unusual solutions, when planning a child's room, you must first ensure that two important factors - comfort and safety. And, of course, of great importance is sustainability, which means finishing materials must comply with this requirement. Now there are a lot of cool wallpapers, curtains, lamps for children's rooms. However, to begin equipping such facilities should be zero, that is, to conduct wiring. First and foremost, you need to take care of the lighting.
Lighting
The number and location of lamps depends on the size of the room. But in general all the room lighting can be divided into central and local. Central — This ceiling lamps and spotlights. In a small room quite a common one source of light in the center of the ceiling. If space allows, you can allocate a separate play area. There will be arranged shelves or cabinets with toys and games, plastic house or even a small sports complex — climbing wall with basketball hoop, rope swing. In this case, the child should be set two switches: for chandeliers illuminating the room, and playing area.
Switch
Since now on the market presents a variety of electrical circuit model, there are plenty to choose. This can be a normal
switch with one or two keys, or dimmer. The possibility of fine adjustment of the light flux is very important in the regeneration of room for the kids. Parents may at any time to make sure that their child is all right, or pick up the room right thing. Light dimmer turn the handle or pressing a button will give the opportunity to see everything you need, and do not wake a sleeping baby.
Lighting playing area is carried out in the afternoon or evening, when the child is awake, so the switch for it may be a conventional keyboards. Location of switches or dimmers to plan better so as to turn on the light in the room can be immediately at the entrance, which means an open door must not interfere. And if we start from elementary logic, the common light switch must be available first, and for illuminating the playing area — second.
Local lighting
Regardless of the size of a child's room, it definitely has a sofa or bed. The place where they are established, it is considered a seating area. And if the presence of adults in the bedroom night light is not necessary for a child's room, this element of the interior is a must: the kids are often afraid to go to sleep in total darkness. And waking up at night, with the soft light they can easily find their way in familiar surroundings. And in order to adjust the light from a lamp it was easier, better not to use a conventional push-button switch and dimmer.
The study area is normally defined table — work for students or children for the younger children. Behind him is the process of doing homework, reading books, drawing, sculpture crafts, burning wood. In order to ensure that children do not have to strain your eyes, working space over the table should be well lit. The light source is best to use a desk lamp with a flexible arm.
And a night light, and table lighting equipment must be connected to the power supply, we must not forget that the long wires will only hinder children. Therefore, the location of outlets you need to consider taking into account the placement of furniture in the room. Floor lamps as lighting elements of the room, very not recommended: the kids need active play and in their process of similar items may be accidentally overturned. The room where the children will grow up, relax, learn, does not tolerate any « adults » jewelry.
Control knob underfloor
It is often installed in the children's electric floor heating. Today, manufacturers of this equipment offers a variety of systems – from electrical cables to the infrared film, and each of them need external control unit. So be ready to provide a place on the wall for its location. It must be hidden from the children, but for adults available. As an option – underfloor heating control system can be placed on the wall of the room adjacent to the nursery. Unfortunately, manufacturers of warm floors offer complete such temperature controllers in a single, and often boring design. The innovative i-system from Siemens AG. allows you to set the temperature controller on the wall DELTA and decorate it any beautiful frame of the program DELTA production SIEMENS, which you prefer.
Secure outlet
outlets in the nursery need to connect additional lighting: lamp, table lamp. It would also be nice to provide a few more: to turn the vacuum cleaner while cleaning the room (it can be used for cell phone chargers), and connect to the network for toys: railroad, game console, cautery wood.
In addition, now virtually all children have a computer: one likes to spend time at the games, while others are actively using the Internet capabilities. In most cases, computer equipment and all necessary equipment are in the nursery, so be sure to schedule a telephone connection and outlets for computer, monitor, modem, printer. All of them should be safe for children.
If previously issued special plastic plugs that prevent access to outlets, but now the need for them anymore. Now, in the nursery installed sockets with protective shutters that open only while the introduction of the two metal contacts on the plug. This means that even the most inquisitive child, knowing the world will not be able to hurt yourself in the process of their own « Research ».
Electrical safety in child
However, the electric shock may be caused not only by “ invasion ” the working zone outlet. Accidental damage to the wiring in the wall or a violation of the integrity of the electrical insulation can not only lead to failure of the equipment, but also to accidents. The best option would be the organization of the wiring in the nursery holding a separate cable. In this case, in the control panel, you can install an extra protective device – RCD, which would be responsible only for the child. If the panel is not in space, convenient to use differential machines. These devices are a kind of hybrid circuit breakers and RCD. Places they take a little bit (you just take out a gun and put bipolarity instead dif.avtomat), but at the same time effectively protect systems and equipment against overload and short circuit protection, and people - from electric shock.
Selection of electrical equipment for children's rooms – deal simple and complex. Difficult - because electrical shop offers a wide selection of all kinds of switches, sockets, control systems. Simple – because of the cheap goods of dubious quality should be abandoned immediately. Outwardly, they can copy the model of well-known manufacturers, but the reliability of their work no one can guarantee. Cheap breaker can « sparkling » at any time, and it is fraught with fire. Faulty RCD may not work when the child decides to explore the outlet, and the result is an electric shock that can cause burns or even cardiac arrest. Trying to save on wiring and modular product — to risk the safety of their own child. That is why the product should contact the serious producers, guaranteeing the high quality of their products.
