Know The Importance Of 3 Pin Plug And How It Works

3 pin plugs are mainly designed to operate class III electrical appliances such as refrigerators, microwave ovens, and other metal body appliances. All of these appliances need to be earthed or grounded to eliminate the risk of electrocution caused by an electricity leakage passed to the metal body. It offers extra safety against insulation failures.

  2. 3 pin plugs are mainly designed to operate class III electrical appliances such as refrigerators, microwave ovens, and other metal body appliances. All of these appliances need to be earthed or grounded to eliminate the risk of electrocution caused by an electricity leakage passed to the metal body. It offers extra safety against insulation failures. 3 round pin, earthed plug This type of plug is used to operate heavy appliances like air-conditioners. In a 3-pin plug, the wire that is connected to the ground pin of a plug is also connected to the metal body of the equipment. If any kind of current leakage is appearing on the metal body of the equipment then, it must be discharged safely to the ground. It will prevent the users from high electric shocks while using the equipment. If there is any serious fault on the equipment, it also makes the fuse blow, to protect the user. Therefore, the system should be properly earthed or grounded to prevent electric shock. The earth pin or the 3rd- pin on a plug is generally bigger and thicker than the rest pins, probably the live and neutral pins allowing the earth pin to be the first to connect and the last to disconnect. Hope this article helps you with all your requirements of 3 pin plugs and would have benefited you with more knowledge and your day-to-day safety practices.
