Choosing a socket switch may seem insignificant, but in reality, there is a lot to it. Choosing the wrong model may only be a small issue, but purchasing products with poor quality can cause big trouble.
Some people, in pursuit of affordability, may purchase through informal channels, which may result in buying counterfeit or miscellaneous products. Not to mention wasting money, what's more serious is that you may buy products without safety certification, which can cause short circuits at the slightest and threaten personal safety at the most. This is not a joke, friends.

1、 There are various types of sockets, which ones are essential?
The essential types of sockets include three pin sockets and five pin sockets. According to personal needs, four hole sockets and seven hole sockets are also good choices.
When purchasing a three hole socket, it is important to choose the appropriate model, which is generally divided into 16A and 10A. 16A sockets are mainly used for high-power electrical appliances such as air conditioners and electric water heaters, while 10A sockets are sufficient for other daily use.
Do you often encounter situations where a slightly larger plug cannot be inserted into another socket for a five hole socket. If the budget is relatively sufficient, it is recommended to choose a slanted five hole socket. The design of two staggered socket seats greatly improves space utilization. But be careful not to use high-power appliances at the same time to avoid overloading.
The four hole socket is suitable for use in TV cabinets, televisions, speakers, set-top boxes, DVDs, and other audiovisual equipment, all of which use this type of two pole plug. In fact, there are many places at home that are suitable for using four pin sockets, such as bedside tables, because most small appliances and chargers that are frequently plugged in and out use two pin sockets.
2、 Are lifting sockets, track sockets, and ground sockets worth purchasing?
It can be said that it depends on the situation.
The lifting socket, needless to say, has advantages in terms of aesthetics and space saving, as the socket part can be hidden inside the socket box. However, its price is quite expensive, often requiring thousands of yuan. Unless your kitchen is equipped with a large island countertop and your budget is sufficient, this may not be your choice.
3、 Are USB sockets and multifunctional sockets convenient and easy to use worth buying?
Not recommended for purchase.
A socket with USB is actually a combination of an AC module (five pin jack) and a DC module (USB jack). This combination mixes strong and weak electricity together, posing a safety hazard. Due to the fragile design of USB ports, they are easily damaged by foreign objects, resulting in exposed circuits, and their service life is far less than that of five hole sockets. When the USB port is combined with strong electricity, it may shorten the lifespan of the entire device and even cause strong electricity accidents such as short circuits, fires, or electrocution.
