In this embodiment, an explosion-proof non-sparking socket includes an explosion-proof housing 1. The top of the explosion-proof housing 1 is fixedly connected with an upper cover 2 through bolts. The cooperation between the upper cover 2 and the explosion-proof housing 1 realizes the protection of the components inside the explosion-proof housing 1. An installation hole 21 is opened on the top surface of the upper cover 2, and a socket contact 8 is assembled in the installation hole 21. A socket connector 3 is plugged and connected to the top of the socket contact 8. A fastening cap 4 is arranged on the outer wall of the socket connector 3 to lock the connection between the socket contact 8 and the socket connector 3. Through the design of the fastening cap 4, the locking function of the plug-and-play connection between the socket contact 8 and the socket connector 3 is realized. On one side of the outer wall surface of the explosion-proof housing 1, a wiring cylinder 7 is fixedly connected, and the wiring cylinder 7 is communicated with the inside of the explosion-proof housing 1. This structural design facilitates the connection of cables. Combining the above structural design, the explosion-proof housing 1, the socket contact 8 and the socket connector 3 are all detachably connected, ensuring that during the maintenance process, the damaged parts can be replaced targeted, reducing the maintenance cost.

[0029] In this embodiment, both sides of the fastening cap 4 are fixedly connected with a cover body 6 through a connecting device 5.
