Have You Got the Usage of the Power Socket?

2022-11-04 16:38:18

The power socket is the key equipment for us to use electrical appliances at ordinary times. Without it, electrical appliances cannot be used. However, many friends did not master the correct use method when using the socket, which led to potential safety hazards. So, how should the power socket be used correctly?

Arrangement of sockets

 

The socket shall not be arranged too low. If it is a wall socket, the installation position shall be determined according to the placement of indoor electrical appliances and considering the leakage of the socket. The height of the exposed socket shall not be less than 1.8m from the ground, and the height of the installed socket shall not be less than 0.3m from the ground.

 

Safe use of high-power electrical appliances

 

In life, it is unsafe for some families to insert multiple high-power electrical appliances (such as air conditioners, electric water heaters, ovens, electric kettles, etc.) into the same plug-in board. When multiple appliances are used at the same time, the load of the socket node and wire is too high, which will affect each other and easily cause potential safety hazards. In addition, although the power of the refrigerator is not large during normal operation, the startup will produce a large startup current, and the socket should also be used separately.

 

Selection of appropriate copper wire for socket

 

The wire of the socket shall be a copper wire of appropriate thickness as far as possible. Different wires shall be selected according to different loads. It is recommended to use 4mm2-6mm2 wire diameter wire for the home main line return line, 2.5mm-4mm2 wire for the cabinet air conditioner and electric water heater circuit construction, and 2.5mm2 copper wire for the general standby socket.

 

The number of plugs is appropriate

 

When using the row plug, pay attention to the total power of the electrical appliances. The general rated function of the patch panel, no matter how many sockets, should not be greater than 2500W. When using, it should not be convenient to plug in multiple electrical appliances at the same time. So that the patch panel can be used with overload, and do a good job of potential safety hazards.

 

Pay attention to waterproofing when using the socket

 

Pay attention to waterproofing when using the socket. Whether it is a wall plug or a row plug, when using the power socket, try to keep your hands clean and dry, and do not touch the socket with wet hands or wet rags. Otherwise, it is easy to get an electric shock. Splash boxes should be installed in kitchens, bathrooms, or outdoors.
