In household electricity, high-power electrical appliances are often used, but if a low-power outlet is used, accidents such as short-circuiting are likely to occur. Common sockets are generally 16a and 10a outlets, then what is the meaning of 16a socket ? Which electrical appliances use 16a socket ? Presumably many people do not understand, following Xiaobian together to see it!

What does "a" mean?

Before understanding the socket 16a, we first understand what "a" in the next 16a means. There are currently two types of power available on the market: 16a and 10a. “a” means the power of the current, which means that the 16 and 10 numbers also represent the power. When using home appliances, if the power of the home appliance exceeds the power of the outlet, it is easy to blow the fuse and even cause a fire.

Second, what is the 16a socket

There are two kinds of 16a sockets, one is that sometimes the family needs to use high-power electrical appliances, and for security reasons, it will choose to plug only one electrical appliance; the other is that there are multiple jacks, Plug into other electrical outlets.

Third, what is 10a socket

10a socket, usually a five-hole socket, is a double head and a three head, suitable for low-power appliances (such as: TV, computers, rice cookers, etc.), in order to save the plug space. Some of the larger appliances, such as water heaters and small air-conditioning units, are only one of three sockets.

Fourth, the difference between 10a socket and 16a socket

1. Appearance: 10a is a five-eye insertion, which is a three-eye and a two-eye; and 16a is a three-eye insertion, and is larger than the 10a three-eye insertion volume.

2. Use: 16a plug and 10a plug are not universal, 10a plug can not be inserted into the 16a socket, of course, can not.

c. Receptacle metal: The 16a socket carries more current than the 10a socket, and more copper is used, while the 10a socket is less.

d. Acceptance scale: The 16a socket can accept electrical power within 3000W, while the 10a socket power is controlled within 1800W, otherwise it is easy to accident.

V. Which electrical appliances use 16a socket

Using high-power appliances at home, safety is very important. Be cautious when choosing outlets . It is best to use 16a sockets for high-power products. For example, commonly used high-power electrical appliances include air conditioners, induction cookers, microwave ovens, etc. These appliances are out of the scope of use, prone to burning out of fuses, fires and other accidents, so everyone must use the 16a socket when using electrical appliances.

Editor's summary: Many users pay more attention to the brand, price, and appearance of the socket when they purchase the socket. Less consideration is given to the use of 16a sockets or 10a sockets for electrical appliances, which leads to many accidents. I believe that through the introduction of Xiao Qi above, everyone will be more cautious when buying outlets.

16a socket

There are two main production processes. The first type micro-prism-type body reflective logo, mainly using a high-quality, durable micro-prism structure of the reflective material. The structure for the reflecting marking quality requirements of the demanding high reflectivity, its pure, bright color to improve the significance of the day marked.

The second process is made of sealed capsule type reflective material, the width for the logo is 50mm, the surface color is white (150mm).Red interval. In which, white is reflective material natural color, red ink printed on the surface film by silk-screen printing.The surface of the material has a regular hexagonal embossed reflective material structure. Including transparent surface film, air film, glass beads, support layer, resin layer, gum and paper.
