Surge Protection Mechanism
The socket uses a metal oxide varistor (MOV) to limit voltage spikes.
The MOV responds to short-duration voltage surges caused by lightning or grid switching.
Peak surge current is rated at 6500A under an 8/20μs test waveform.
Breakdown voltage is 423–517V at 1mA. This is the voltage range where the MOV begins to clamp.
The 10A current rating refers to normal operating current. The 6500A surge rating refers to short-duration surge current capacity. These two ratings should not be confused.
Continuous load capacity is 2300W at 230V.
The flame-retardant PC housing is intended to reduce fire risk if internal components overheat or fail.

Quality Control and Testing
Before final packing, each production batch undergoes these checks:
Incoming raw material inspection
Welding inspection
AOI optical inspection
Assembly
Aging test
Load test
Surge protection test
Appearance and safety check
Production equipment used includes wave soldering machines, AOI inspection machines, automatic assembly lines, injection molding machines, and aging test benches.
Manufacturer Background
Aipulan is located in Cixi, Zhejiang Province, China. The company operates its own injection molding, welding, AOI inspection, automatic assembly, and aging testing processes.
The engineering team has worked on remote control sockets and related electrical products since the 1990s. For surge protection products, the team applies experience in socket design, MOV selection, and electrical safety testing.
Because key processes are handled in-house, Aipulan can control material consistency, production scheduling, and final product quality more directly than companies that outsource manufacturing.

FAQ
Q: What does the 6500A surge rating actually mean?
A: The 6500A value refers to the maximum peak surge current the MOV can handle under an 8/20μs test waveform. It is not the normal operating current. The socket's normal operating current is rated at 10A, and the continuous load limit is 2300W at 230V.
Q: Is this socket only for EU plug types?
A: Yes. This model is designed for standard EU plugs and 230V 50Hz electrical systems. It is not compatible with UK, US, or AU plugs without an adapter.
Q: What is the MOV breakdown voltage range?
A: The MOV begins clamping when voltage reaches 423–517V at 1mA. This is the voltage range where the surge protection component starts to limit excess voltage.
Q: Can this socket protect devices from lightning strikes?
A: It is designed to absorb short-duration voltage spikes caused by lightning or grid switching. It is not a replacement for a whole-building lightning protection system. For direct lightning strikes, additional external protection is required.
Q: Does the socket have an on/off switch?
A: Yes. The socket includes an independent switch, allowing users to disconnect power without removing the plug.
Q: Can I connect multiple devices to this socket?
A: The total load must not exceed 2300W. For multiple devices, calculate the combined power consumption and ensure it stays below this limit.
Q: What certification does this product have?
A: The product is designed to meet CE and RoHS requirements. Test reports can be provided upon request. If a specific certification is required, Aipulan can support the application based on order volume and target market.
Q: Is the housing really flame-retardant?
A: The housing is made from flame-retardant PC material. It is selected to reduce the risk of deformation and ignition under abnormal conditions. The material grade can be confirmed in the product specification sheet.
