In recent ten years, the fire disaster in China

About 30% of the reasons are caused by short circuit of socket and switch

A small socket is so powerful

Did you shock everyone

A kind of

First of all, you can't be careless when you install the socket

The socket is not installed correctly

It's like a time bomb

It could be dangerous at any time

A kind of

Misunderstanding 1

A kind of

Some families want to be beautiful

Install the socket in a concealed position at the bottom

In fact, this is a dangerous foreshadowing

When we mop the floor

If you are not careful, you will splash water into the socket

It is easy to cause leakage

Concealed socket should be no less than 0.3m

Surface mounted socket should be no less than 1.8m

The socket of kitchen and toilet is about 1.5 meters above the ground

Air conditioning socket should not be less than 2m

Misunderstanding 2

A kind of

Kitchen and toilet protection measures need to be installed

Because these two rooms are dealing with water every day

If you don't take a shower, you will splash water into the socket

Cause short circuit or leakage accident

So we need to install a splash box

Don't try to save trouble

And leave a bigger problem

Misunderstanding 3

A kind of

Multiple appliances share one socket

It is easy to burn out the socket due to excessive power

In particular, such as air conditioning, refrigerators and other high-power electrical appliances

So we need to install more sockets in the house

Four sets of sockets should be kept in the bedroom

The living room is best every 2.5 square meters

Misunderstanding 4

A kind of

Aluminum wire shall not be used for power lead of socket

Because aluminum wire is easy to oxidize

The joint is easy to ignite

So choose copper wire

Other families find too many sockets

Hide all the sockets

We must follow the rule of "zero line into lamp head and fire line into switch"

Misunderstanding 5

A kind of

The ground wire should not be placed at random

The ground wire is when the electric appliance leaks electricity

A line of defense for human protection

If you put it wrong, you can make a big mistake

Misunderstanding 6

A kind of

If there is only one circuit in the home

An electrical appliance is short circuited

The electrical appliances of the whole house will be damaged

And there is a greater danger

It's better to have one circuit per room

Especially toilets and toilets
