First of all, we should pay attention to the origin because Siemens switches have different series, so we should understand that the origin of different series is different. For example, at present, the production of Yuan Jing series is in Guangdong, and the manufacturer is Guangdong Liansu Electric Appliance Co., Ltd., and the manufacturer of Lingdong series, Lexus series and Pinpin series is Siemens (Shandong) Switch and Socket Co., Ltd., but no matter what series, the total distribution is Siemens (China) Co., Ltd., once you find that you are not buying Siemens electric products from these two manufacturers, but common Siemens in Hong Kong and Siemens in Shenzhen, you can basically judge that they are fakes.
Panel material
Authentic panels are made of Bayer PC imported from Germany, with good impact resistance, high temperature resistance, good gloss, easy cleaning and good flame retardancy. Because of its impact resistance, it will not break easily even if it is bent by hand, while counterfeit products are mostly recycled plastics, which are easy to crack or break when bending. For flame retardancy, it is actually the basic safety feature of switches. Once we buy the imitation, the flame retardancy is very poor, which is likely to bring hidden dangers to your household electricity consumption.
Identification of internal delivery
For electrical products, tin-phosphorus bronze has excellent characteristics such as good elasticity, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and no spark when it is punched out, and it is an ideal accessory for electrical products. Authentic Siemens switches and sockets are made of high-quality Sn-P bronze materials and adopt Siemens patented technology, all of which are integrally designed and stamped without riveting points. When you find that the switch you bought is made of ordinary brass, or the hardware such as the paddle has riveting points, then you can judge that it is a fake switch.
Anti-counterfeiting and inquiry method of switch
You know, every genuine Siemens switch has an anti-counterfeiting code, and the anti-counterfeiting code is ***20 digits. But now, there is a difference between the old and the new. For example, the security code before 20 12 is fully displayed, while the latest security code after 20 12 is covered by some layers, which we should know. With the 20-digit anti-counterfeiting code, you can make anti-counterfeiting inquiry at at /wa in official website, Siemens, China. Need to be reminded that when inquiring according to the latest anti-counterfeiting code, the first inquiry shows that all those who have been inquired for many times or cannot be inquired are fakes.
Matters needing attention
Electrical switch products are related to the safety of household electricity, so we must not be careless when choosing them. Nowadays, many people choose to shop online. When buying Siemens switches online, you must buy them in a store authorized by Siemens. Officially authorized online sales channels can also be found on Siemens official website.
