Also known as:

Wall Outlet, Electrical Socket, Power Outlet, Plug Socket, Electric Outlet, AC Outlet, Wall Socket.

About:

The primary purpose is to reduce the risk of electrical shocks or electrocution, particularly for households with young children. It's significantly more effective at preventing accidents than plastic outlet covers.Ideal for use in homes, schools, daycare facilities, and other environments where children are present. They are as easy to install as standard outlets and can replace existing outlets.

Common Applications:

• Residential Homes:They are extensively used in family homes, particularly in areas accessible to children. This includes bedrooms, living rooms, kitchens, and bathrooms, providing an extra layer of protection against electrical accidents.

• Schools and Daycare Centers:In educational and childcare facilities, these receptacles are essential for ensuring the safety of children.They are often installed in classrooms, play areas, and common rooms.

• Commercial Buildings:Office buildings, shopping centers, and public venues often install tamper-resistant receptacles in publicly accessible areas to prevent accidental shocks and ensure compliance with safety codes.

• Airports and Transportation Hubs: In places with high public traffic, such as airports and train stations, these receptacles help to minimize the risk of electrical accidents.

Standards:

• National Electrical Code (NEC):The NEC, specifically Article 406.12, mandates the use of tamper-resistant receptacles in all new and renovated dwellings. This includes residential homes, apartments, and certain childcare facilities.

• International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC):While IEC standards are more prevalent in Europe and other parts of the world, they also influence the design and safety features of electrical devices, including tamper-resistant outlets.

• American National Standards Institute (ANSI): ANSI may also have relevant standards or guidelines that pertain to the manufacturing and testing of electrical receptacles, including those that are tamper-resistant.
