    Water vapor from the bath.

    It will conduct electricity and leakage, and when the water vapor in the air in the closed bathroom reaches a certain concentration, it will not conduct electricity, and the lamp holder is not easy to conduct electricity when exposed to the air.

    If there is a leakage of electricity from the internal heating element of the electric water heater, the metal parts of the water heater outlet, shower and faucet will all become live parts, and if there is no reliable grounding protection measure, it will be electrocuted when taking a bath. The use of storage electric water heaters requires the grounding wire in the user's home.

    It must be good, while some houses are poorly grounded or even have no grounding devices.

    When the water vapor in the air of a closed bathroom reaches a certain concentration, it will not conduct electricity, and the lamp holder will not conduct electricity easily when exposed to air.

    If there is a leakage of electricity from the internal heating element of the electric water heater, the metal parts of the water heater outlet, shower and faucet will all become live parts, and if there is no reliable grounding protection measure, it will be electrocuted when taking a bath. The use of storage electric water heaters requires that the grounding wire in the user's home must be good, and some houses have poor grounding or even no grounding device.

    For example, the decoration is connected to the wrong wire, the line is aging, the wire is pulled privately, the use of inferior switches and sockets, and the water pipe is used as the grounding wire, etc., which may lead to the ground wire being electrified and causing an electric shock accident. Do not heat while washing. Electric water heater leakage is a very dangerous accident, it is recommended that it is best to turn off the power during use, and do not heat while washing.

    Extended Information: The introduction of bathing with a bathroom water heater is as follows:

    Magnesium rods must be replaced regularly. The magnesium rods in the storage type electric water heater should be replaced regularly. Plays a role in slowing down water alkalinity.

    Once the magnesium rod with scale corrosion is consumed, it is easy to cause corrosion of the inner tank or corrosion and perforation of the heating pipe, which will cause the danger of leakage. Storage water heaters should be cleaned regularly. The longer it is used, the more dirt will be in the tank, and the water will be conductive.

    The stronger it is, the more dangerous it will be.

    The water heater heats the water and stores the water in a container. It is equipped with a device to control the water temperature, and when the set temperature is reached, the thermostat.

    Disconnect the current of the heating tube and enter the heat preservation state. It needs to be heated in advance before use, and the power switch can be turned off before showering.

    For safety, there are electrical outlets in the bathroom.

    A certain height will be reserved, generally not less than meters. The height of the socket of the smart toilet should not be too high, so choose a waterproof socket with a waterproof cover, which can effectively block splashing water and water vapor adhesion.

    It's possible, but it's unlikely! I think the most important thing to worry about is to prevent water from getting into the socket, so it is recommended that the toilet should be splash-resistant (with a cover) socket.

    When taking a bath in winter, some of the hot air does run from the jack into the socket and condenses into water droplets, causing the inside of the socket to be damp, but this amount of water is very small. Wires are less fragile and less prone to breakage!

    Friends in the south should have heard of "return to Nantian", and most of the return to Nantian occurs in early spring, probably in March and April. When I met the back of the south, the walls, floors, stairs, and wardrobes were full of water, and sometimes the whole room was like a rain when it was exaggerated. If you add in the rainy weather for several days in a row, the clothes will not dry for a week.

    Similarly, the line pipe inside the wall will condense a lot of water when it encounters the same as returning to the south sky. Even in this case, wire leakage is rare. Unless the wire is damaged during laying, or the wire has been used for a long time, the insulation has deteriorated, and leakage may occur.

    So, you don't have to worry about the outlet leaking due to bath water vapor. However, when you take a shower, you should be careful not to pour water into the socket.

    Hello, it will. Water vapor contains water, and water can conduct electricity, so the water vapor in the bath can conduct or leak electricity under certain conditions.

    Normally, no, because although the water vapor in the bath is very humid, the bathroom is waterproof.

  5. Anonymous users2024-02-08

    No. Unless you wash for several hours in a row, the steam turns into condensation or water sprays onto the socket or switch, and the socket switch does not have a waterproof box, you can use it with confidence.

    Does Yuba often work in very humid environments? Almost every household uses yuba. It can be seen that the design of Yuba can adapt to environmental requirements, there is no leakage, and it can be used safely. Substandard products are another problem.

    No. Water vapor is equivalent to distilled water, which does not conduct electricity, but if the shower sprays it, you may be electrocuted!

    The water vapor and bath bombs produced during bathing generally do not conduct electricity.

    It is estimated that the protection device that cuts off the power supply when the water is cut off plays a role to prevent the danger of boiling dry water when the water is turned on!

    Theoretically, water vapor does not form a stable conductive current.

    Even if the power supply line of the bath bomb is exposed, there is an insulation layer on the outer surface of the electrical line, which has a considerable degree of insulation effect, and generally does not leak.

    However, for the sake of insurance, the power supply lines of bath bombs and water heaters must use national standard copper core wires with appropriate wire diameter, and the wire diameter can be too large to be too small. It is best not to have a joint in the middle of the power supply line to prevent the power supply line from burning in the middle joint.

    If there is indeed a power cord connector in the middle, it should be better insulated.

    Generally speaking, it is difficult to cause electric shock due to the water vapor generated during bathing, because the water vapor is not continuous, but the water generated during bathing may cause electric shock, and it is also very dangerous to have a socket in the shower, so the socket in the shower room should be strictly waterproof.

    Of course not, because the bathroom is protected against leakage, and the protector will warn you if there is a leak.

    Generally, there will be a cover on this socket, and it will be fine to cover it with a cover, and usually water vapor will not make people electrocuted, because there is a device in the bathroom that is conductive, and if the decoration is fine, it will not be electrocuted.

    The shower has sockets, so the water vapor from the bath will not cause electric shock. In the event of a leak, the leakage circuit breaker will be de-energized. The restroom is hotter and less likely to fall.

    If the insulation of the route is damaged, there is a high risk of leakage and power outage. When the hands are wet, you can't touch the metal with electricity, which can clear the probability of electric shock accidents and greatly reduce it. First of all, the hands or the body, especially if they are clammy and cold, will leave to look at Marxism.

    It would be better if the outer cover was tightly closed, in fact, it is very dangerous to remove the neutral wire in the power plug.

    If only water seeps into it, it is likely to cause a local short circuit, and the zero line of the live wire will directly contact the switch of your home, and the electrical products with refrigerators and automatic washing machines and water heaters are likely to be damaged. However, the lighting fixtures of the bulb are likely to be preserved, worn out or can be reduced due to the connection method. If water goes in and encounters your shower head, or encounters a metal conductor (such as a basin rack) and your hands are resting on the metal, there is a greater risk of damage – life, but it is unlikely.

    In the operation process, consider whether the cable can undertake the electrical engineering of your household appliances.

    It is best to separate the electric water heater from the reserved electrical outlet. The relative height and location of the wall switch socket in the toilet: the power switch needs to be assembled in the road meter, the power switch part must be paired with the lighting fixture part, and the switch height in the same room must be matched.

    We need to choose high-quality socket switches made by reliable companies, and we don't have to set up fake and inferior socket switches for better cost-effectiveness. Try to find an authoritative expert to set it for you to prevent a lot of unnecessary inconvenience.

    The outlet switch in the home should be equipped with a maintenance door electrical outlet, especially to maintain the safety of the child. The conditions in the restroom are very wet and cold, pay attention to ventilation and moisture in the body, and the washroom door should be opened. The wall switch socket should be kept at a certain distance from the shower area.

    Even with a moisture-resistant cover, it poses a safety risk in wet and cold conditions.

    There is no absolute theory of whether it conducts electricity or not, but here is the answer. It does not know whether the medium (i.e., the space filler) conducts the energy transfer of electrons inside the substance. So metals with free electrons and liquids with ions are both conductors.

    Insulators like plastics are insulated because the electrons in the molecule are bound relatively tightly and have a small range of motion, and the energy of the electrons cannot be transported in a conventional environment.

    But in special cases, such as high pressure. An electrical breakdown is generated. The essence is that the molecule is excited in high energy.

    And then there is a chain reaction. When many electrons are ionized, a channel for energy transport is formed (even rarefied media such as air can break down at high voltages). So it conducts electricity.

    The environment where the bath is located will not exceed 220V. Hehe, don't touch the electric door, I like physics, mainly in chemistry. That's my understanding.

    Pure water is non-conductive, and water that conducts electricity is impure. Why? Pure water has no freely moving electrons, and it can generally be conductive because there are some ions dissolved in the water, such as extracting substances added by the water plant in natural water, or the original ones that have not been removed (not necessarily harmful to people), these things provide freely moving electrons to conduct electricity.

    And then for example, table salt. Salt is the main component is Na+ Cl-, which is two ions, not NaCl molecules, that is, it can have electrons, but it is also non-conductive, because they are arranged in an orderly manner according to some law in space, even if there are electrons, they can't move by themselves, you think about it this way: look at Na+ Cl- in table salt as sand, one grain at a time, if you want this sand to move to that position, it is not possible, and the same is true for table salt.

    So water vapor is pure water, which does not conduct electricity in the first place, and they are not yet arranged like metals, and even if there are electrons, they cannot conduct electricity. Let's talk about how metals conduct electricity. Elemental metal, at least I haven't seen it.

    For example, pure Cu (copper) contains two kinds of particles, Cu Cu2+, they are arranged together, A(Cu2+) transfers electrons to B(Cu), then A becomes (Cu) B becomes (Cu2+) and the electrons are transferred. Cu Cu2+ is dynamically balanced.

    Water vapor is a moist gas that does not conduct electricity when a live conductor is not in contact with another conductor, and conducts electricity when two objects are in contact.

Yes. Because water vapor is a part of the air and is ubiquitous, there is water vapor in the sky and on the earth, and when water vapor accumulates too much in the sky, it will form clouds.
