Ten hidden dangers of fire caused by switch socket outlet:

When using household wall switch socket, if the operation is not correct, it will cause fire. The specific incorrect use methods are as follows:

1.The electric socket of toilet should be installed with splash proof box to avoid broken circuit caused by water splashing.

2.The power socket is pressed by inflammable materials or dust falling into the power outlet, causing short circuit. Or the usb plug is installed in the inflammable and explosive dangerous places. When the plug is inserted or pulled out, sparks will be generated to cause explosion and fire.

3.If the outlet plug is damaged and not replaced in time,and the plug is replaced by bare wire, which will cause short circuit or spark and cause combustible fire.

4.Some bedside switches can be casually placed after use, and the external insulation layer will be damaged due to the impact of the switch on the bedstead or the wall, which is likely to cause short circuit.

5.The working voltage and current of the lamp holder do not match with the power of the socket used. If the temperature is too high, it will cause a fire.

6.Insulation stripping of wire end for flat or screw socket or multi hole socket- If it is too long, the exposed part will cause short circuit; if it is too short, the conductor will be in bad contact, and the contact resistance will be too large and overheated, which will cause fire.

7.In the process of installing the lamp holder, the wires are twisted together by twisting the lamp holder, or the exposed wire core is too much, which will touch the other end and cause short circuit and fire.

8.Improper installation of the switch, especially when the switch is installed on combustible objects, the sheath at the lead-in place of the wire is scratched, which makes the wire core exposed or water vapor seeps into it, resulting in short circuit, or arc is generated when the switch is disconnected, causing fire.

9.If the distribution board is not in the box, there will be hot metal particles splashing down when the fuse is blown, so that the combustible materials below will cause combustion.

10.When the combustible gas used in home is mixed with air and reaches the explosion limit due to the leakage of pipeline or valve, the electric switch without arc suppression device will generate sparks and cause fire or explosion.
