   The surface-mounted series is a cloth line. The bottom box is exposed on the wall. After installation, it is about 3cm higher than the wall. It is more convenient to repair if there is a problem with the circuit. The installation speed is fast and the price is relatively affordable. The biggest disadvantage is that it is not beautiful.
   The concealed series is slotted on the wall, cloth pipes, and the bottom box is embedded in the wall. After the panel is installed, only one panel is projected on the wall surface. The effect looks more beautiful, and the furniture and other things are also convenient to put , Will not affect the appearance because the line is outside. For concealed installation, please pay attention to drawing the wiring diagram of the wires beforehand to prevent the short circuit caused by hitting the wires when repairing or drilling holes in the wall or installing other things. When wiring, it should be buried well, and the line should not be unsightly due to improper construction, and the price of concealed installation is more expensive.

   Surface-mounted series: The surface-mounted switch is connected to the bottom box, directly purchase cement nails (installed on the cement wall) or self-tapping screws (on the wooden board)
   Concealed installation series: You need to buy the concealed bottom box first and bury it in the wall. After installing the house, install the switch again in two steps.
