Central Vacuum Attachments or Connections in Buildings Using
Electrical Tape vs Electrical Nuts
Increasing voltage and amperage to electrical devices
increases the risk potential shorts and electrical fire hazards if electrical
tape is used to hold and insulate the bare electrical wire end.
Electrical connections should be sound firm connections by
using the appropriate components such as electrical nuts for the particular
wire size and quantity of wires. If electrical tape is used to cover the wires
as the voltage and amperage increase the potential of burn through the electrical
tape increases. The ends of the wire when cut have sharp edges and as tape is
wrapped around the wire stretch and thin out. Most of all the electrical tape
will deteriorate over time. Electrical nuts are designed to hold the wires
together and have a solid protective coating to prevent shorts, burn through
and maintain a tight connection among the wires joined.
When central vacuum connection are failing intermittently after
years of use from connecting and disconnecting it is time to inspected and resolve
your issue. If twisting the hose connection from side to side to make the
central vacuum start-up it is possible that the hose end is failing, wires connections
could be broken / disconnected or the connection itself is broken. Once should
never forget that pipes could also be plugged, broken or even disconnected.
The only way to determine your particular issue is to
systematically trouble shoot.
We could possibly resolve your central vacuum issues so contact
DDCL’s Representative Daniel at 587-597-4228. Have a great days and see you
next time.
