What Makes Docking Drawer Outlets Child-Safe and Tamper-Resistant?
Every Docking Drawer in-drawer AC outlet is engineered to be tamper resistant, featuring an integrated shutter system designed to block access to the outlet’s slots unless a standard plug is inserted. This mechanism uses two spring-loaded shutters that require simultaneous pressure on both sides to open. If a child or someone attempts to insert an object like a key or tool, the shutters stay shut, effectively preventing exposure to live electrical current.
Tamper resistant technology not only safeguards against electrical shock for children but also minimizes the risk of fire by reducing the chance of accidental contact with live circuits. Furthermore, Docking Drawer’s AC outlets undergo thorough testing to ensure they comply with National Electrical Code (NEC) standards for residential use.
Safety is a top priority at Docking Drawer. Our outlets stand out thanks to their built-in safety features, extensive cycle testing, and ETL certifications.
