C13 card power socket attention usage, American power socket fire prevention knowledge

    What are the common sense of fire protection for American power sockets? The following is a small series for everyone to popularize the American power socket fire prevention knowledge.

    1. Before installing the socket, check the matching with the electrical appliance used. Under normal circumstances, the specification of the power socket selected should be more than 2 times of the electrical current. For appliances that are often plugged in and unplugged, the socket size should be more than three times the electrical current.

    2. The socket is pressed by flammable materials or the dust falls into the short circuit, or installed in a flammable and explosive dangerous place. When a plug is inserted or unplugged, a spark is generated to cause an explosion.

    3. Install a splash-proof box on the socket of the bathroom to avoid water splashing and forming an open circuit.

    4. The plug is not damaged in time, and the bare wire is used instead of the plug, causing a short circuit or spark, causing the combustible to catch fire.

    5. Some bedside switches are placed after use, and the switch hits the bed frame or the wall to damage the outer insulation layer, which may cause a short circuit.

    6. The working voltage and working current of the lamp holder do not match the power of the socket used. It is overloaded for a long time. If the temperature is too high, it will cause a fire. Sanxiong Aurora‘s sockets are all 16A‘s large current limit, which can meet all normal industrial and household power consumption. Some other switches are generally 10A current limit. When the household uses a little more power, it will cause a fire.

    7. During the installation of the lamp holder, twist the lamp holder to make the wires twist together, or the exposed core is too much, and when it is scattered, it will hit the other end and cause a short-circuit fire.

    8. The wire ends of the flat or screw sockets or multi-eye sockets are insulated and stripped. When it is too long, the exposed part causes a short circuit; when it is too short, the conductor is in poor contact, the contact resistance is too large, and the overheating causes a fire.

    9. The switch is improperly installed. In particular, the switch is installed on a flammable object. The sheath is scratched at the lead-out point, causing the core to be exposed or water vapor to penetrate, causing a short circuit, or an arc generated when the switch is disconnected, causing a fire.

    10. The cross section of the power cord used for the chandelier is small and the power used is too large, causing the wire to heat up and ignite.
