About so cord

SO cord refers to a kind of insulating tube used to protect the end of the wire or the connection of the wire, generally made of plastic, rubber and other materials.

The advantage of using SO cord

How to choose SO cord?

There are several factors buyers need to consider when buying an umbilical cord. These factors include length, rated power and plug connectors. The length of the wire is important because it determines how far the power can be transmitted. It also helps determine the amount of voltage it will carry to its final destination. Another factor buyers need to consider is the power rating and ampacity, which is mainly affected by the thickness of the extension cord. In addition, whether people are using it indoors or outdoors, extension cords for outdoor use need to be covered with a sheath to prevent damage. Finally, consider the type of plug connector. The connector should match the electrical outlet.

Matters needing attention about power cords

Different power cords have different power output capabilities. Select an appropriate power cable based on the power requirements of the device. When purchasing a power cable, ensure that the caliber of the power cable is the same as that of the device. Otherwise, the device may be damaged. In the process of using the power cable, pay attention to avoid excessive bending and stretching of the cable, avoid metal oxidation of the interface affecting the electricity conduction, and avoid the power cable from being compressed by objects.
