The American standard switch socket originated in the United States, and was later modified and developed by the Legrand Group, named 118 module lighting switch electrical socket, and changed from a lever switch to a rocker switch.
With the development of society, many countries that use 118 switch sockets have their own power standards, and Brazilian socket modules, Italian socket modules, and European socket modules have gradually appeared.
The switch socket is a square of 118mmx74mm in size, and the button is a rocker switch, which fits the finger very well and is easy to press.
When installing, you only need to remove the panel, connect the wires in the wall to the wire inlet on the back of the switch, tighten the screws with a screwdriver, and then use the matching accessory screws to fix them in the pre-embedded junction box to complete the installation.
American Standard Light Switch Electrical socket Part
Button
PC (Polycarbonate) plastics above V1 flame retardant grade are used. The flame retardant grade is very important, which means the degree of safety.
Decorative Bracket
It acts as a fixed decoration and makes the home switch design look more complete.
Plastic rice swing
Assembled with the spring, combined with the button spring to control the on/off of the switch by rocking.
Switch Swing Contact
This is a small button inside a switch on which the big button will be assembled.
Bottom Fixed Plate
It is the fixing device of the whole lighting switch. The design precision of this part determines whether the lighting switch is firm and whether it is easy to assemble.
Terminals and Contacts
This part’s material greatly influences the service life of the lighting switch and is generally dominated by brass fittings and silver cadmium oxide contacts.
If the light switch does not use brass fittings and silver cadmium oxide contacts or better, please do not buy it, this is a very dangerous product, and there is a risk of burning during use.
Safety Door
It uses a structure that cannot be opened when one hole is stressed, mainly to protect the safety of children, so please buy an electrical outlet with a safety door.
PC Bottom
For fixing accessories and isolating current, this part must be made of flame-retardant plastic above the v1 level.
Steel Frame
For switch and wall fixing, please use an iron plate with a thickness of ≥1.2mm. After testing, an iron frame with a thickness of ≥1.2mm is not easy to deform.
American Standard Switch socket Installation method
Install 118 module switch socket
As shown in the figure, the installation method is straightforward: install the modules one by one on the iron frame on the back.
We generally make finished products according to customer requirements, which can be sold as finished products, or as separate parts with panels and modules separated, depending on the customer’s sales ideas.
American Standard Light Switch Part
Light switches work by connecting to the wires in your home. When you turn on the light switch, it sends a signal to the light and turns the light on. When you turn off the light switch, the switch is disconnected from the wiring and the light goes out.
American Standard Electrical Socket Part
The socket has a number of different parts that work together to provide power to your appliances. The first part is the metal strip that runs down the middle of the socket. This is where you plug in your appliance cord. The metal strip is also electrically connected to the two side terminals, which are used to connect the socket to the wall.
118 American Standard Switch Socket Panel Module
The different sizes of the panels mean that different numbers of modules can be put in. For example, a Panel 4 panel can put only a 1 Gang switch with a large button, or a 1 Gang switch with 3 small buttons to make it a 3 gang switch.
Panel 1 (1/3)
Only 1 module with 1/3 size of Panel 4 holes can be placed
Panel 2 (2/3)
Only 2 modules with 1/3 size of Panel 4 holes can be placed
Panel 3(2/1)
Only 1 module with 1/2 size of Panel 4 holes can be placed
Panel 4
You can put many at the same time, depending on the module you choose

We make a preliminary judgment through plastic, copper, contacts, and Chrome process:
Plastic products are used in various fields, but PC and nylon are the most used in the production process of lighting switches and power sockets. Compared to nylon plastic, PC plastic is more malleable.Generally, it meets the requirements of PC plastics required for production. The flame retardant grade is ≥V1.
How to judge whether PC plastic meets the standard?
The easiest way to do this is to ignite the plastic with a lighter and start timing when the plastic burns. If the flame is extinguished within 30 seconds and the plastic does not melt and drip, it can be judged acceptable.
The material of copper is also very critical, it directly determines the service life of the product and the temperature inside the switch socket when it is powered on. The worse the copper is used, the greater the risk of the switch socket burning in use.
How to judge whether the copper material is marked?
Generally, the switches of products that meet the standard are made of H66 brass, and the sockets are made of H66 bronze. Thickness ≥ 0.7mm, only with such a thickness can long-term use be guaranteed. After all, electricity safety is very important.
Switches and sockets must use silver contacts, because silver has good electrical conductivity, but it is too expensive to use silver alone.
How to judge the quality of contacts?
The silver contact points that meet the standard are made of silver cadmium oxide composite material, and the thickness is ≥3MM and the diameter is ≥3.5MM. Only a silver cadmium oxide of this size can guarantee the passage of electric current.
The chrome process has become very mature after years of development and is widely used in the design of switch socket products. Still, most factories cannot achieve complete insulation of sockets processed by the Chrome process.
How to judge that the Chrome layer of the socket is wholly insulated?
The easiest way to judge is to check whether the electrical outlet is below or above the horizontal.
If it is lower than the horizontal surface, there is a high probability that the Chrome process will conduct electricity, and there will be a risk of electric shock during use.
