2. How to choose power strips
1. Materials
The materials used in the panels of high-quality power strips are excellent in flame retardancy, insulation and impact resistance. It is excellent in terms of durability and moisture resistance, and the material has strong stability and is not easy to change color. In addition to using high-grade plastics, current switch panels are also made of gold-plated, stainless steel, copper and other metal materials, providing people with more and more choices.
2. Appearance
If the surface is smooth, uniform in color, and textured, it is generally a good product. In addition, the brand logo on the panel should be clear and full, and there should be no burrs on the surface.
3. Internal structure
Switches usually use pure silver contacts and conductive bridges made of silver-copper composite materials, which can prevent oxidation caused by arcing when the switch is opened and closed.
The conductive bridge of the high-quality panel is made of silver-nickel-copper composite material. The silver material has excellent conductivity, and the silver-nickel alloy has a very strong ability to suppress arcs. This ensures that the switch can be opened and closed more than 80,000 times, far exceeding the international regulations. 40,000 times standard. The switch uses brass screws to crimp the wires, which has a large contact surface, strong wire crimping ability, and stable and reliable wiring. And if it is a single-hole wiring copper post, the wiring capacity is large and is not limited by the thickness of the wire, which is very convenient.
4. Feel
Try the switch. A good switch spring has moderate hardness and softness, excellent elasticity, and strong opening and closing transitions. There will be no situation where the strip button stops somewhere in the middle and becomes a serious fire hazard. You can also weigh the power strip. High-quality products use a lot of copper and silver metal, so they won't feel light.
5. Manufacturing process
Plug-in switches are often touched, especially colored switch panels. If you choose unqualified and inferior products, they will age and fade over time. If you choose switches that use materials with anti-UV properties and use a spray-coated film process on the frame, the color will not change at all even if it is used for a long time.
