What are the advantages of the metal shell of the 13A 1 Gang metal clad Switched Socket Single Pole over the plastic shell?

The metal shell of the 13A 1 Gang metal clad Switched Socket Single Pole is usually made of solid materials such as iron sheets, with high thickness and strength, and can withstand higher pressure without deformation. In contrast, although the plastic shell is light, it is relatively fragile and susceptible to external damage. The sturdiness of the metal shell gives it a longer service life and reduces the frequency of replacement due to shell damage.
The thermal conductivity of the metal shell is better than that of the plastic shell, which can effectively avoid overheating under strong current and reduce the risk of fire. In addition, the metal shell usually uses high-temperature flame-retardant materials to further enhance the fire resistance. Although the conductivity of the metal shell may generate electromagnetic fields, it can also shield external electromagnetic interference to a certain extent, protecting the normal operation of internal circuits and electrical equipment.
The metal shell usually has a more advanced appearance and texture, which can enhance the overall grade of the home or office environment. At the same time, the metal shell can also present a more diverse selection of colors and textures through surface treatment processes such as spraying, electroplating, and brushing.
Metal housings are usually more durable and more suitable for use in harsh environments or high-load conditions. For example, in commercial places or high-end residences, metal housing switches and sockets can better meet the requirements for beauty, durability and safety. The installation of metal housing switches and sockets is usually more stable and reliable, which can reduce safety hazards caused by improper installation.
The metal housing of the 13A 1-position metal housing switch and socket single-pole is superior to the plastic housing in terms of durability, safety, beauty and texture, as well as adaptability and installation. These advantages make metal housing switches and sockets the first choice for many homes and offices.
