A power adapter plug (ปลั๊กไฟ มาตรฐาน, which is the term in Thai) is a common component of every electrical charging device. Right from a mobile to a laptop charger, it has been used very often. People are advised very often to carry it during overseas travel. But the reason behind its wide usage is its features and forte.
What Is A Power Adapter Plug?
A power adaptor or power adaptor plug is a device that converts AC power into DC power which is used to charge electrical devices. It comes in various shapes and sizes as per the utility of the end device. The most common type is in the form of a socket that has an output terminal to the other side. Electrical outlet(ปลั๊กไฟ data ราคา, term in Thai) of this element id given to various devices that work on DC.
These plugs are of different types based on the region of usage such as regional and universal. The regional power adaptor is used in a region within which the frequency and amplitude of the supply are the same. However, universal power adapters are the component that is advised to ca4rry while traveling overseas.
For example, an appliance bought or designed in one country and now needs to be charged into another country which has a different frequency range. Universal adapters are used in such cases to facilitate the power supply. It has various outlet sections for convenient power output.
Advantages of Power Adaptor Plugs
Following are some of the benefits of using a power adaptor plug:
Safe And Secure
Electrocution from a high power AC supply is more hazardous than a low power DC supply. Therefore, the usage of an adapter reduces the chances of getting an electric shock. The power adaptor plug protects both the owner and the device from harm.
Compact In Size
In comparison to other energy transformation devices, power adaptor plugs are comparatively smaller in size. This reduces the risk of storing and carrying the equipment.
Power Saving
When devices are fed with supply via power adaptor, the heat loss due to power supply is less. The power adaptor plugs are designed in such a way to transmit highly efficient power with minimum power loss. This results in saving of extra power that could have been consumed during the heat loss.
The Life Of The Device Is Increased
AC power supply is very prone to distortions and noises. The power adaptor plug acts as a filter that removes all the distortion from the power supply. Due to this, the quality of the device is preserved well and the life of the device is increased.
