It can withstand temperature of 120℃ under normal working environment. In the flame retardant test (850°C glow wire), there is no visible flame, no continuous glow, and the silk paper does not fire. The flame goes out within 30 seconds after the glow wire is removed, and the glow disappears.
3. Pins and sleeves: high-quality imported copper materials are used, with good plug-in function and anti-corrosion function. Both overcurrent and withstand voltage have reached the national advanced level.
How to use outdoor waterproof plug
1. Install the socket as far as possible in a hidden place out of rain.
2. It is necessary to choose a good-quality large-brand waterproof socket. The quality of the waterproof socket is not good. The safety hazard is relatively large when used in outdoor wet weather.

Sealing principle: Rely on up to 5 sealing rings and sealing rings to pre-tighten the seal with pressure. This kind of seal will not lose the pre-tightening force when the connector heats up and shrinks, and the waterproof effect is guaranteed for a long time, and water molecules cannot penetrate under ordinary pressure.
