Finally, electrical outlets are available with built-in USB plug-ins! This is a global game-changer for everyday convenience. And, just like that, the first and last generation of portable USB converters for chargers has become obsolete in the world of electrical supply to wireless devices. You can now replace your old standard receptacles with new electrical outlets that include USB charging ports.

Having your wireless device chargers featured in your wall outlets frees you from that old annoying lifestyle of searching for a charger throughout the house. You can just plug the charging cable directly into the wall. Plus, the latest USB power outlets charge much faster and more efficiently than the now obsolete old portable chargers.
Retrofitting homes with electrical outlets featuring USB charging ports is providing more and more families with a great added convenience for modern living. It eliminates the clutter of multiple portable chargers around the house and can save a lot of time and irritation collectively over a year for a family.
To replace your regular electrical receptacles with Type A and Type C USB charger outlets, you should use a certified electrician. Your homeowner’s insurance may require proof of USB outlet installation by a licensed professional, especially if there is ever a house fire due to issues with the installation or the hardware.
Besides the potential problems with nonprofessional electrical installations, if your existing wiring is not the same as described in the usb wall outlet installation instructions, your home and its occupants can be at risk from inappropriate outlet wiring. Further, your home does not have proper grounding at the outlets; you need a certified electrician to correct that, along with installing USB outlets for you.
Switching to USB-inclusive outlets also offers an ideal bonus opportunity for you to have your electrician examine the wires in your outlet boxes for their safety condition and long-term functionality.
The early USB outlet type A outlets delivered a maximum of only around 2.5W, whereas the updated USB outlet type C delivers 100W. That means much faster charging, abundant energy capacity for charging larger devices, and pass-through charging to supply multiple devices at the same time.
