There are many brands and types of waterproof sockets on the market, including traditional waterproof sockets for home life, such as triangular plugs, which can be called sockets, but are generally not waterproof. So how is the waterproof socket determined? It is IP, and the highest waterproof level is IP68. There are many manufacturers of waterproof plugs in China, but there are few real industrial and household sockets. Generally, it is very inconvenient that home appliance plugs cannot be used.


The main evaluation standard for the waterproof performance of waterproof connectors is based on the ip waterproof level standard. To see the waterproof performance of the waterproof connector, it mainly depends on the last two digits of IPXX, XX, the first X is from 0 to 6, and the highest level is 6; the second digit is from 0 to 8, and the highest level is 8; therefore, waterproof The highest waterproof rating of the connector is IP68. Sealing principle: rely on up to 5 sealing rings and sealing rings to seal with pressure preload. This kind of seal will not lose the pre-tightening force when the connector is thermally expanded and contracted, and ensures the waterproof effect for a long time. It is impossible for water molecules to penetrate under ordinary pressure.


Household outdoor waterproof sockets, 220V 10A three-plug and two-plug plugs can be used in non-protective state to meet household requirements. (The protection level IP66 can meet the needs of the family. IP66 means that the water will not enter when sprayed violently in all directions, and it will not enter the water after soaking in 1 meter of water for 1 hour.) It should be noted that outdoor sockets are generally made of PC material, and anti-aging should be considered.


Many people don't know that there are already 10A "fingerprint" outdoor waterproof and rainproof sockets for household use, and use indoor splashproof boxes instead of waterproof sockets. It is not safe, and the service life is also because the UV life will not exceed one year.
