We always receive the questions from consumers: The instant electric water heater can be connnected to the socket directly?The answer is that you can’t do it.
The minimum power of the instant electric water heater is 3000w and the maximum power can be more than 10kW. The rated power is higher than the normal home appliances. If you use an electric socket, the current will be too large to burn the socket.It is very danger situation.
Therefore, we require all users who use instant electric water heaters to connect the wires directly.The recommended installation method is to connect the power supply cable to the leakage breaker which can play a protective role.
