Rockland County USB Outlet & Receptacle Installation

Updating Your Outlets to Suit Your Modern Home

Ryan Electrical Services LLC goes above and beyond to provide you with expert electrical services. As technology is on the rise and more and more people are utilizing cell phones, iPads, tablets, and other devices, having a USB charger receptacle is critical.

Benefits Of USB Outlets

If you take a look at the technology you own, there is most likely a use for a USB port. They are in our computers, new televisions and even in the cars we drive now. We have these plugins in all these areas, so why not the wall?

The standard outlet comes with two plugin areas with three prongs. Having the USB aspect included into the outlet (on a standard model) will still have the same two areas with three prongs. However, newer outlets can have the inclusion of two USB ports horizontally in the middle or vertically on the sides. The USB port is becoming more universal and has the ability to carry both power and data through its cords. Having these outlets can make it more convenient when it comes to charging your electronic belongings. For instance, wireless keyboards, cell phones, tablets, speakers, headphones, and an array of other electronics utilize USB.

Are USB Outlets Worth It?

But, are USB outlets worth it? At Ryan Electrical Services, we believe that it is worth the investment and change. A person may own too many chargers for many different electronics. Having this USB would be one less worry and hassle when it comes to finding an adapter piece to plug into the wall. This type of advance in technology is more of a convenience and is a look into what the future could bring for power outlets.

Businesses can definitely benefit from USB outlets as they are extremely convenient for employees. If companies provide work laptops, cell phones or iPads, this will allow them to plugin their many electronic devices.

Types of USB Outlets & Receptacles

Through the use of vertical USB ports, there is a substantial amount of room to insert charging cords. Having an adapter can make a room look cluttered but adapter-free charging makes plenty of room for your electronic devices. These USB charger receptacles fit into an outlet box and are situated behind a standard faceplate. The best part is you'll receive a three-prong receptacle and a built-in USB port.

At Ryan Electrical Services LLC, we offer different types of USB outlets and receptacles in Rockland County depending on your needs. These include:

• 4-port USB charger- These chargers have 4.2 Amps of charging power, providing users with the opportunity to simultaneously charge four high-powered electronics.
• Duplex receptacle- Duplex receptacles are the highest charging devices, which offer 3.6 Amps of charging power and charges two USB electronic devices. With this, the two tamper-resistant receptacles are free.
• Single receptacle- These receptacles allow consumers to charge up to two USB powered electronic devices at the same time.

How USB Outlets Work

USB ports are controlled by smart chips so they recognize how each device should be charged once plugged in. Then the device outputs the current that is best for charging that specific device in the shortest amount of time. For those with children, our receptacles also come with a tamper resistant design.
