1. The functions of the two are different
Ordinary sockets only have the functions of power supply overload protection and master control switch, while PDU not only has power supply overload protection and master control switch, but also has functions such as lightning protection, anti-impulse voltage, anti-static and fire protection.
2. The two materials are different
Ordinary sockets are made of plastic, while PDU power sockets are made of metal, which has an anti-static effect.
3. The application fields of the two are different
Common sockets are generally used in homes or offices to provide power for computers and other electrical appliances, while PDU socket power supplies are generally used in data centers, network systems and industrial environments, installed on equipment racks to provide power for switches, routers and other equipment.
4. The load power of the two is different
The cable configuration of ordinary sockets is weak, the current number is generally 10A/16A, and the rated power is 4000W, while the configuration of PDU power sockets is better than that of ordinary sockets, and its current number can be 16A/32A/65A, etc. It can meet more needs, and its rated carrying power can reach more than 4000W, which can meet the power requirements of the equipment room. And when the PDU power socket is overloaded, it can automatically cut off the power and has a certain fire protection function.
5. The service life of the two is different
The life of ordinary sockets is generally 2~3 years, and the number of plugging and unplugging is about 4500~5000, while the life of PDU power sockets can reach 10 years, and the number of plugging and unplugging times is more than 10,000, which is more than 5 times that of ordinary sockets.
