Disclosed in the present invention is a power converter having a side-mounted socket. At least two side
insertion holes are formed in a side edge of a housing, and comprise a side live wire
insertion hole and a side neutral wire
insertion hole. A fuse
assembly comprises a fuse; a live wire (L) socket
copper clip is provided with a first
metal fuse clip extending downwards; a live wire (L) pin
copper clip is provided with a second
metal fuse clip; and two ends of the fuse are respectively placed in and are electrically connected to the first
metal fuse clip and the second metal fuse clip. The side insertion holes are any one or a combination of US standard insertion holes, UK standard insertion holes, Chinese standard insertion holes, Australian standard insertion holes, or
European standard insertion holes. The present invention achieves a simple structure and stable connection. Pins of different national specifications can be correspondingly converted into pins of other countries, and a side edge is provided with independent side insertion holes. After a pin of a certain specification is inserted into a front composite socket panel, pins of other specifications can also be inserted into side insertion holes to realize simultaneous connection and use, thereby improving the use efficiency of power
converters.
