Difference: The ground wire and the neutral wire are different, the installation direction is different, the shape is different, and the voltage is different.
A. The ground wire is different
1. The national standard socket must have a ground wire input end.
2. The Australian standard ground wire is a flat vertical wire, and the zero live wire is a flat figure-eight pin.
3. The neutral wire of the American standard socket is parallel, and the ground wire is a long cylindrical shape.
B. The installation direction is different
1. The installation direction of the national standard socket is upward.
2. The direction of the Australian standard socket is downward.
C. have different shapes
1. The national standard plug is a solid two-flat pin, which is generally flat.
2. The Australian standard socket is similar to the national standard three-phase socket, but there are still subtle differences between the Chinese and Australian plugs, that is, the pins will be slightly longer by 1mm, with a switch button.
3. The American standard power socket is composed of two flat sockets. There are two types of plugs in the United States, a two-flat row plug and a three-phase plug with a cylindrical pin for grounding. The two flat pins of the US two-phase plug are different sizes, and the live wire is the smaller one. In the United States, the neutral wire of the three-phase plug is two identical pins.
4. The European standard socket is in the shape of two circles and one hole. There is only one type of plug, which is a two-core connector and is cylindrical.
D. Different voltages
1. The national standard socket uses 220V.
2. The voltage used by the Australian standard socket is 240V.
3. The US voltage is 120V, 60Hz.
4. The specified voltage of the European standard plug is 220V, and the specified frequency is 50Hz.
E. Safety performance
1. There is no safety protection door for North American power sockets, which may cause children to insert their fingers or conductive objects into the socket, resulting in the danger of electric shock. Although the United States is 120V low voltage, but the safety of electricity can not be ignored. Objects such as metal may fall into the socket to find that one, touch the contacts, cause a short circuit between the neutral and live wires, and cause a fire.
2. China's new national standard sockets are required to have safety protection doors.
