Earth leakage protection should pay more attention to the

Recently, live in the West Tien Shan Gu Granny told us "home appliances hotline" reflect, home of drum-type washing machines shell with "electric"! use multimeter shell and the ground was found among the dozens of Volt voltage, this is not a washing machine in a leakage? "line" maintenance personnel on-site inspection found that the washing machine man Gu works fine, the shell live is actually generated by environmental dry friction of static electricity, and the provisions of the national standard 36 volt AC voltage safety, does not produce continuous current, the human body without damage, and the leakage was essentially different.

Of course, was a false alarm, but Gu Granny "safety first" consciousness is worth promoting, white goods leakage protection required by the consumers attention.

【 Consumer Alert 】 like refrigerators and washing machines of the types of metal shell, you must have reliable grounding, or once really happen leakage rather dangerous.

Because not all three holes plug seat ground end of the normal ground, so as soon as you discover the signs of possible leakage, to be on the safe side recommends consumers make professional on-site detection, if there is no ground for immediate exclusion phenomena.

Refrigerator "Hi cold fear hot"

In the "first pass" refrigerator repair records, compressor damage caused by refrigeration failure account 76.8%, and apart from the normal electrical failure, about 20% is because user bad habits.

Many people tend to figure 1, inadvertently developed a certain "electricity" habits, such as: direct the hot hot meals in the refrigerator, frequent switching the refrigerator door, etc. These habits are the "heart" of the refrigerator — compressor resulting in additional burden, which not only consumes electricity, if still undermined refrigerator life.

In spring and autumn can be resized to an intermediate file (3-4 stall), summer due to lower the number (1-2 stalls), while winter should be appropriate to increase the number of (4-5 stalls). The second is the refrigerator "Hi cold fear hot", the best place in the absence of the heat source and well-ventilated place around to leave enough space to fully embedded heat dissipation of the drop method let refrigerator "hurt".

Washing machine to wash the "bath"

Washing machines for the whole family to the garment, bedding "bath", but do you think of the washing machine itself also need regular "bath"? "line" maintenance personnel in on-site repair process found that nearly 70% of users do not have the habit of regularly clean washing machine.

While washing machines work every time flows are various detergent, but part of its outlet is experiencing all kinds of dirt "baptism", intake may also lower as a result of drinking water quality and sediment contamination. At the same time, some because fear "into the ash," out of the washing machine is shutting down, resulted in the washing machine internal environmental humidity, the growth of bacteria.

【 Consumer Alert 】 long washing washing machine, washing machine will soon become a family health's "invisible killer".

Regular washing washing machine out of the inlet and the filter is a good habit, also remember always clean the organism of stagnant water, avoid to nourish the bacteria, but also in the winter frost. Normal washing is finished, you have to wait after steam dissipated (1 hour) and then shut the door, it protects washer internal devices not damp.
