Are you renovating your house? Decorating a warm and comfortable home requires us to pay attention to many details. Although switches and sockets are small items during decoration, they are related to the safety of your electricity use. Siemens sockets are the choice of many knowledgeable people. Correspondingly

How to tell the authenticity of Siemens sockets? The outer packaging is different

Let’s compare the outer packaging first. The genuine outer packaging has The printing code is clear and very concentrated. In the picture below, the printing codes on the outer packaging of the two counterfeit sockets are blurred on one and scattered on the other. This can be easily distinguished by contrast.

Jack

In fact, the difference between true and false can also be seen through the small jack. For example, you can see a short horizontal bar on the inside of the real Siemens socket jack, which is visible on both sides. The imitation does not have the short horizontal bar on the inside at all.

Bracket plastic outlet

Details determine success or failure. There are also differences in the plastic opening of the socket's shell. The genuine plastic outlet is in the lower left corner of the back and is relatively flat and standard. The plastic outlet of the two imitations is at the upper part of the back, or in the upper left or right corner, and neither of them is flat.

Shell frame

Let’s compare the frame of the shell later. The plastic opening of the frame of the real Siemens socket is also very smooth, like wood. The plastic opening of the fake frame is uneven and has obvious marks similar to being cut by a blade.

The logo on the back

We all know that electrical products such as sockets need to be marked with rated voltage and current. The fake sockets were not missed either. It can be seen that a lot of thought was put into it. However, as long as we compare it with the original product, we can easily find the difference. The fonts on the back of genuine sockets are smaller and more prominent. The font here on the fake one is obviously larger and not much raised.

How to check the authenticity?

Identification such as appearance is only one aspect of distinguishing authenticity. Many people still don’t believe in their ability and must go to the official to confirm. In fact, This is completely possible. The official website of Siemens China provides a special anti-counterfeiting query system (/products/et/input.asp). After logging in, enter the 20-digit anti-counterfeiting code as shown below in the query box to check the authenticity. However, I would like to remind everyone that the security codes on counterfeit sockets are generally copied from the genuine security codes. Therefore, the security codes of some counterfeit products will appear normal during verification. It is recommended that you still use the identification methods and security codes provided above. Combined to be more confident.

Notes: When decorating, try to reserve enough space for sockets and switches to avoid insufficient sockets for more electrical appliances in the future.

When choosing Siemens sockets, try to find officially authorized dealers to buy them. You must know that some merchants claim to be genuine, but in fact they are high imitations.
