The installation heights of sockets in home decoration

The installation heights of sockets in home decoration may vary depending on different rooms 

and purposes. The following are some reference installation heights for common sockets:

- **Living room**

    - **Common sockets**: Generally, they are about 300mm above the ground, which is convenient

 for the use of various electrical appliances such as TVs, routers, and floor lamps.

    - **Sockets for the TV cabinet**: If there is a TV cabinet, the height of the socket can be adjusted

 according to the height of the TV cabinet. Usually, it is 100 - 200mm above the TV cabinet to ensure 

that not too many wires are exposed after connecting the electrical plugs, maintaining a good appearance.

 For example, if the TV cabinet is 500mm high, the socket height can be set at 600 - 700mm.

    - **Air conditioner sockets**: The sockets for cabinet air conditioners are 300 - 400mm above the ground, 

making it convenient to plug in and out the air conditioner plugs; the sockets for wall-mounted air conditioners 

are generally above the installation position of the air conditioner, 200 - 300mm away from the ceiling. The 

specific height needs to be determined in combination with the size and installation position of the air 

conditioner to ensure that the socket is within the length range of the air conditioner's power cord.

- **Bedroom**

    - **Bedside sockets**: The height is usually 100 - 200mm above the bedside table, which is convenient for 

charging mobile phones and using table lamps, etc. Generally, the bedside table is 400 - 500mm high, so 

the socket height can be set at 500 - 700mm.

    - **Common sockets**: Similar to the common sockets in the living room, they are about 300mm above

 the ground and are used for electrical appliances such as computers and fans.

    - **Air conditioner sockets**: The same as the sockets for wall-mounted air conditioners in the living room, 

200 - 300mm away from the ceiling.

- **Kitchen**

    - **Sockets for general electrical appliances**: They are 300 - 400mm above the ground and are used for

 electrical appliances such as rice cookers, microwaves, and soybean milk makers. If there are kitchen cabinets,

 the sockets can be set below the cabinets, and the height should be appropriate to facilitate the connection 

of electrical plugs without affecting the opening and closing of the cabinet doors.

    - **Socket for the range hood**: It is above the range hood, 300 - 400mm away from the ceiling. The specific

 position needs to be determined according to the size and installation position of the range hood to ensure

 that the socket can be blocked by the range hood and maintain a good appearance.

    - **Socket for the gas water heater**: If it is a forced-draft gas water heater, the socket is generally 1.5 - 1.8m

 above the ground, which is convenient for connecting the water heater plug. At the same time, the installation

 position of the water heater and the direction of the exhaust pipe should be considered to avoid the socket being

 blocked or affected by heat.

- **Bathroom**

    - **Socket for the washing machine**: It is 1.2 - 1.5m above the ground to prevent water ingress or splashing 

from the washing machine from affecting the socket, and it is also convenient to plug in and out the plug.

    - **Socket for the electric water heater**: Generally, it is 1.5 - 2m above the ground. Adjust it according to the

 installation position of the electric water heater to ensure that the socket is within the length range of the water

 heater's power cord and is away from places where water is likely to splash, such as the showerhead.

    - **Socket for the mirror-front lamp**: It is above or beside the mirror, 1.6 - 1.8m above the ground, which is

 convenient for the installation and use of the mirror-front lamp.

    - **Sockets for hair dryers, etc.**: They are 1.3 - 1.5m above the ground, which is convenient for using various

 small electrical appliances. At the same time, waterproof measures should be taken, and a waterproof box can 

be installed.

    The above socket heights are for reference only. During actual decoration, appropriate adjustments can be

 made according to factors such as furniture dimensions, the positions of electrical appliances, and personal

 usage habits.
