How do I install a new outlet?
assistant
To install a new outlet, you will need to turn off the power to the circuit that includes the existing outlet. Then, using an electric drill and screwdriver, remove the cover plate from the wall and disconnect the wires from the outlet. Next, measure the distance between your new outlet and any other outlets in the same room and make sure it is within the specified range for the type of outlet you are installing. Connect the wires from the new outlet to the appropriate screws on the wall, then secure the cover plate back onto the wall. Finally, turn the power back on and test the outlet to ensure it works properly.
