Article Abstract:
Electrical contractors can maximize their profits by offering customers a range of more expensive but attractive electrical accessories, such as stainless steel or brass switch plates. Contractors must ensure they can obtain a complete range of accessories so that they all match. There are accessories which cater for the needs of elderly or disabled people plus wiring accessories which improve safety in public buildings, such as lamp-activated safety lampholders and smoke alarms.
