Outlet replacements are necessary for any home or workspace that uses electricity for all plug-in devices.

This includes the replacement of an outlet where the existing wiring is present.

Procedure:

• Turn the power off.
• Remove the faceplate from the electrical outlet.
• Remove the electrical outlet from the box by unscrewing the visible screws.
• Pull the outlet away from the box.
• Remove the wires from the old outlet by unscrewing the screws they're wrapped around slightly.  Just enough so that you can slip the wires off.
