Why is the ground wire of the European VDE power cord designed to be non-detachable?

Electrical safety has always been a focus of consumers and manufacturers in Europe. In order to further improve the safety performance of power cords, VDE (German Association of Electrical Engineers) certified power cords have introduced a non-detachable grounding wire design. This innovative design aims to reduce the safety hazards caused by loose or falling grounding wires, and provide users with a safer and more reliable electrical use environment.

In traditional power cord designs, grounding wires are usually connected in a detachable way. However, this design has certain safety hazards. Due to long-term use or improper operation, the grounding wire may loosen or fall off, causing the electrical equipment to lose grounding protection, thereby increasing the risk of electric shock and fire. To solve this problem, VDE power cords adopt a non-detachable design.

The non-detachable design means that the grounding wire is firmly connected to the metal part of the plug inside the plug and cannot be easily separated. This design ensures the stability and reliability of the grounding wire and avoids safety hazards caused by loose or falling grounding wires. Even under long-term use or harsh environments, the grounding wire can remain firmly connected to ensure that electrical equipment always has good grounding protection.

The reason for choosing a non-detachable design is that it significantly improves safety performance. First, the non-removable wire design eliminates the risk of loose or falling ground wires, and reduces the probability of safety accidents caused by leakage or short circuit of electrical equipment. Secondly, this design improves the overall reliability of the power cord and reduces the need for repair and replacement caused by ground wire problems. Finally, the non-removable wire design meets the requirements of European and international electrical safety standards, providing users with a safer and more reliable electrical use environment.

In addition to the improvement of safety performance, the non-removable wire design also has certain environmental significance. Since the need for repair and replacement caused by ground wire problems is reduced, resource consumption and waste generation are reduced. At the same time, this design also increases the service life of the power cord and reduces the generation of electronic waste.

Therefore, combined with the above content, it can be concluded that the non-removable wire design of the European VDE power cord is an innovative and practical measure. It not only improves the safety performance of the power cord, but also provides users with a safer and more reliable electrical use environment. With the promotion and application of this design, it is believed that it will bring a safer and more convenient electrical use experience to consumers.
