Misuse of one or five empty sockets
1, socket position is too low
Many families are installing sockets, which are too high and unsightly, so they are installed in low hidden positions. However, Xia Dong, a doctor of China Academy of Sciences, said that when mopping the floor, water could easily splash on the socket, leading to leakage accidents. According to industry regulations, the position of the socket should not be less than 1.8m from the ground. The concealed socket is not less than 0.3m from the ground. The kitchen and toilet sockets should be more than 1.5 meters away from the ground, and the air conditioning sockets should be at least 2 meters away from the ground.
2, wire socket installation at will
The power cord must use copper wire section. If you live in an old house, you must replace the original aluminum wire with copper wire. Because the aluminum wire is easy to oxidize, the joint is easy to catch fire. A survey shows that the incidence of electrical fires in houses using aluminum wires is dozens of times that of copper wires. In addition, for the sake of beauty, many families will adopt the way of slotting and burying wires and laying concealed pipes. Xia Dong reminded that when wiring, the principle of "live wire enters the switch and zero wire enters the lamp holder" must be followed, and a leakage protection device should be installed on the socket.
3. The socket lacks protective measures.
There is often water and oil in the kitchen and toilet. It is best to install the socket panel in a splash box or plastic baffle, which can effectively prevent short circuit caused by oil pollution and water vapor intrusion. In a family with children, it is necessary to choose a safety socket with a safety baffle in order to prevent children from touching the socket hole with their fingers or stabbing with metal objects.
4, all kinds of electrical appliances * * * with the same socket.
This will overload the socket and cause a fire. It is best to use separate sockets for high-power appliances such as air conditioners, washing machines and range hoods. Generally speaking, it is best to install four sets of sockets in the bedroom, one for every 2.5 square meters in the living room and one for every 1.2 square meters in the kitchen.
