Connect the wires to the appropriate terminals on the socket. Follow the wiring diagram provided with the socket to ensure correct connections. If you are unsure about the wiring, consult an electrician or refer to the product manual.
Step 5: Test the Connection
After connecting the wires, use the multimeter to test the electrical connection. Set the multimeter to the appropriate voltage or resistance setting and check for continuity.
