[0038] The method for preventing the plug 4 from being electrified to be pulled out of the socket 3 comprises

[0039] S11, the buckle 17 is released, an external force is provided to the plug 4 to pull out the socket 3, so that the plug 4 no longer presses down the stroke impact rod 11;

[0040] S12, the stroke impact rod 11 is reset through the spring 10, the normally open contact of the micro switch 8 is disconnected, the leakage circuit breaker undervoltage release coil 6 loses power, and the power circuit breaker 2 automatically trips;

[0041] Through the above method, the power circuit breaker 2 automatically trips, the power is cut off, sparks are avoided, and when sudden power failure or low line voltage occurs, the power circuit breaker 2 can also automatically trip to protect the electric machine 5, and when the plug 4 and the socket 3 are not in use, the power circuit breaker 2 cannot be closed, which can also ensure that the socket is not electrified when not in use, and safety is ensured.

[0042] The method for preventing the plug 4 from being electrified to be inserted into the socket 3 comprises

[0043] S21, when the socket 3 is not inserted into the plug 4, the normally open contact of the micro switch 8 is disconnected, the leakage circuit breaker undervoltage release coil 6 loses power, and the power circuit breaker 2 cannot be closed;
