To install the Elektro-Plast HERMES socket, ensure the power supply is disconnected at the main circuit breaker before beginning any work. Secure the base of the socket to the desired surface using appropriate mounting hardware, connect the electrical wires to the designated terminals according to local electrical codes, and attach the cover plate. Once secured, test the connection to ensure the socket is functioning correctly before restoring power.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the surface mounting style is compatible with your wall structure
