If you’re a home owner, at one point or another an electrical outlet will probably have to be replaced. I’m not sure how this one got burnt out but it definitely needs to be changed. It’s pretty easy to do even if you’ve never done it before and I’ll show you step-by-step how to do it with some basic household tools. One of the things needed is a circuit tester. Start with a circuit tester to see if this is an active outlet. Then you’ll have to take off the face plate before the real repair work begins. And turn off the circuit breaker before working on any wiring.
I bought a 10-pack of Leviton electrical outlets which was actually pretty inexpensive. You could just buy one but since this is a rental house I wanted some extras around in case I had more to replace. A pair of pliers and a screw driver is all that is needed for this DIY project.
Hopefully in this video I’ve been able to show you how easy it is to replace a bad outlet in your home. I’m not an electrician but I’ve replaced several of these since being a home owner.

This is the BEST video on this topic!!!! The other videos go by so fast that I don’t know what they did. People act like they have a bus to catch and it’s not important enough to slow down, you know? After all it’s only electricity.
REPENT AND FOLLOW JESUS CHRIST BEFORE ITS TOO LATE 🔴
JESUS CHRIST IS THE ONLY HOPE ✝️ ,
Philippians 2:9-11 🔴
[9]Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name,
[10]that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth,
[11]and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
The wires had too much exposed copper wire to be safe when wrapped around the terminal there should not be anything that shows add a terminal except the insulation cover
