Title: Sockets AND PLUGES PROBLMES
1Sockets AND PLUGES PROBLMES IN THE SAUDI
MARKET The unstandard sockets and plugs could
cause many problems not only for human being but
also for buildings , factories ..etc and may
be all of towns . Many disasters were happened in
everywhere around the world because of bad
connections .

6- So, MOWE and SASO cooperated to carry out various
tests on 115 random samples from ( sockets ,
plugs , power bars , and adaptors ) according to
the flowing tables
7Test results of Socket samples
8Test results of Socket samples
9Test results of electric connection adaptor
samples
10Test results of electric connection adaptor
samples
11Test results of electric plug, double socket and
outer frame samples
12- This study gives the following indicators
- Local samples are not exceeding 20 .
- Complied specimens of socket not exceed 20.
- Complied specimens of plug not exceed 10.
- Complied specimens of power bars not exceed zero
. - Complied specimens of adaptor not exceed zero .
13- The results above show that the power bars and
adaptors are the very danger things and can cause
a disaster in any time when they not comply with
the standard.
14Tests
- Visual inspection
- Dimensions
- Entrance shape
- Dielectric test
- Heat resistance test
- High voltage test
- Measuring of wire cross section .
15- Insulation resistance test 500V /1min 5 M ? .
- Dielectric test 2000 V / 1min.
- Contact resistance
- test 0.05 ? .
16Withdrawal force test .
17- Resistance to upnormal heat and fire test .
- 850 C / 30 sec.

19Sockets comply with the specifications
20Sockets comply with the specifications
21Power bars not comply with the specifications
22Adaptors not comply with the specifications
23Bad and danger connections
24Power bars not comply with the specifications
25Recommendations
- All authorities , ministries , and public sectors
which care of standards must join to implement
and activate the standards . - Support and develop the national laboratories to
update the modified standard . - Applying the conformity program to ban the un-
complying products . - Improving the local products by complying with
