The simplest way- install plugin in "plugin" directory of Photoshop (for example- C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop CS\Plug-Ins)
Or install plugin in any catalog, then set this cataolg as "Additional Plugins Folder". You may make it by set catalog in Preferences (menu - Edit->Preferences ->Plug-ins and Scratch Disks".
After Photoshop restarting you find plugins in menu Effects (of course if you programm is PH plugin).

If you want to install plugin "For Photoshop Only", i.e. such plugin that uses Photoshop core ypu have to show install instruction.

Dmitry, what you mean with "catalog" is actually called "folder" in English.
