The electric meter box is now an important power transmission equipment for every household. The electricity of every household needs to be transmitted through the electric meter box. If the electric meter box breaks down or catches fire, the whole family circuit will be paralyzed. So what is the cause of the fire when the meter box is in use?

Nowadays, with the increase of household appliances, the power consumption in the home is also increasing. Due to the increase of power consumption, sometimes the electricity load will appear in the meter box, so the meter box will catch fire. In fact, there are many reasons for the fire of the meter box, such as power load, humidity, incorrect installation or wiring short circuit from the meter box without permission. In addition, the electricity load in rainy season and cold weather may cause fire, so these should be paid attention to.

The aging of the meter box actually refers to the aging line of the meter box. When the line reaches the service age, it cannot be used normally. In addition, the baking temperature, lighting and corrosive environment will directly shorten the service life of the meter box line, and the insulation layer will crack black and decompose, which will lead to short circuit, a large number of local heating, too high temperature, melting the insulation layer, igniting combustible substances and causing fire. " 。 No matter the enterprise or the individual, if the fire caused by the meter box and the circuit is seriously aging, some useful and practical measures should be taken. In daily life, people should check the safety of the electrical circuit in the house, do not pull the wire, in the kitchen, toilet and other damp places of the house, do the line leakage protection measures, automatic air switch and fuse installation, copper wire, aluminum wire instead of fuse is strictly prohibited.

Replace the aging time table box to avoid aging and burning of short circuit wires. Secondly, check and use the meter box regularly. The cooling condition is good. Do not place the meter box too close to the combustible heat source. It is to check whether the meter box is overloaded, so as not to use the user's meter box as much as possible in the thunderstorm weather for a batch of large meter boxes at the same time. We usually want to keep alert eyes. Once the smell of burning rubber is pungent and the plastic is at home, there may be an electrical fire. At this time, it should be repaired as soon as possible. In order to confirm the meter box after the fire, the power should be switched on in time. If the TV, induction cooker and other domestic electric meter boxes are on fire, the application of dry powder fire extinguisher and carbon dioxide fire extinguisher will not be reached. In case of emergency, the electric meter box with quilt cover can also be soaked to achieve the purpose of fire prevention.
