Talking about several aspects to do well in bathroom installation

We know that the bathroom is a place where there is a lot of water at home. At the same time, with the continuous improvement of living standards, some small appliances will be added to the bathroom to help improve the quality of life, such as smart toilets, electric water heaters, hair dryers, etc. It is necessary to reserve a certain number of sockets during construction. So what aspects should be done to install sockets in the watery and damp toilets to be healthier?

1. For the socket next to the sink, in order to prevent water splashing on it and penetrating into the socket cassette when installing, be sure to reserve an appropriate height. According to Article 8.0.7 of the national standard "Code for Design of General Electrical Equipment" GB50055-93, since the toilet is relatively humid and the ground is prone to water, any power socket inside it shall not be installed less than 1.5m.

If for some reason, the installation of the socket does not meet this requirement, for example, for a smart toilet, the position of the socket should of course be the same as the height of the toilet. At this time, the socket must be a waterproof socket with a waterproof cover, and a socket with a switch button setting should be used at the same time, so that if it is not using electricity, it will be in the disconnected state, which can add a protection to the family.

2. When the bathroom is used for water and electricity, you must pay attention to the reservation of the equipotential terminal. The so-called equipotential terminal, one of its intuitive functions is to play a role similar to the grounding wire. When building a house, the construction master will weld the equipotential through the steel bars to the conductive sheets in the bathroom, kitchen, etc. in advance.

On the other hand, it is connected to the key parts of the bathroom, such as shower, bathtub, metal pipe fittings, bathroom power socket, etc., through PE wire. If someone accidentally encounters electricity leakage when taking a bath or washing face in the bathroom, the wire will be immediately connected. The current is led to the terminal for decomposition, and then led to the ground through the flat iron, so as to avoid the occurrence of electric shock, and play a role in life-saving at critical moments. Therefore, the equipotential terminal must be protected during the bathroom decoration construction. It is not possible to directly smash the equipotential terminal or seal it under the ceramic tile for the convenience of construction, and it does not play its protective role.

3. For electric water heaters, it is recommended to install a leakage switch socket, which can provide additional protection, because under normal use of the water heater, there is still a possibility that one leakage protection will fail, but two or even three leakage protections will fail at the same time The probability is very low, that is, multiple protections will make the use of the water heater healthier.
