Cost-effectiveness of rural lighting electrical ready boards: the balance point between function and price

As the core control equipment for household electricity, rural lighting electrical ready boards need to balance basic functions, safety protection, and cost control. The balance point of its cost-effectiveness is mainly reflected in the following three aspects:

1、 Core Function: Balancing Safety and Practicality

Basic distribution and protection functions

Electricity distribution: The main line power is distributed to lighting, sockets and other branches through circuit breakers to meet the electricity needs of different equipment.

Overload/short circuit protection: When the current exceeds the rated value or the line is short circuited, the circuit breaker automatically trips to prevent equipment damage or fire. For example, the lighting circuit uses 16A circuit breakers to accurately match the load requirements.

Leakage protection: Wet environments such as bathrooms and kitchens should be equipped with leakage protection switches (operating current ≤ 30mA) to avoid electric shock accidents.

Extended functions (choose as needed)

Overvoltage protection: prevents voltage fluctuations from damaging electrical appliances, suitable for rural areas with unstable power grids.

Surge protection: Resist lightning or instantaneous overvoltage, protect sensitive equipment such as televisions and computers.

Balance point suggestion:

Rural households prioritize basic protection functions (overload, short circuit, leakage protection), and then choose overvoltage or undervoltage protection or surge protection according to actual needs.

2、 Price composition: Material, specifications, and brand have a significant impact

Material differences

Cold rolled steel plate: High cost-effectiveness, suitable for most rural scenes, moderate price.

Stainless steel: corrosion-resistant and durable, but relatively expensive, suitable for humid or coastal areas.

Plastic: Low cost, but weak protective performance, only suitable for places with low protection requirements.

Specification and size

The larger the specifications, the more electrical components can be accommodated, and the higher the price. For example, a small electrical ready board (350 × 280 × 90mm) can meet the needs of ordinary households, with prices ranging from a few hundred yuan to a thousand yuan; The price of large electrical ready boards may exceed several thousand yuan.

Balance point suggestion: Choose specifications based on the number of circuits. For example, for lighting 1 circuit, regular socket 1 circuit, kitchen socket 1 circuit, bathroom socket 1 circuit, choose a electrical ready board that can accommodate 5-6 circuit breakers.

Brand and Quality

Famous brands (such as ABB, Schneider, Siemens): reliable quality, advanced technology, but relatively high prices.

Mid to low end brands: high cost-effectiveness, but attention should be paid to product quality and after-sales service.

Balance point suggestion: Choose mid-range brands with good reputation, such as Chint and Delixi, while balancing quality and cost.

3、 Cost effective optimization plan

Function selection

Basic configuration: Circuit breaker (lighting+socket)+leakage protection switch (bathroom/kitchen)+overvoltage/undervoltage protector (optional).

Installation and maintenance

Installation cost: Self installation can save costs, but it is necessary to ensure compliance with safety regulations

Maintenance cost: Regularly check whether the circuit breaker and leakage protection switch are normal, replace aging components in a timely manner, and avoid the expansion of faults.

Long-term Gain

Security guarantee: High quality electrical ready boards can reduce the risk of fire and electric shock, and minimize potential losses.

Energy saving effect: By allocating electricity reasonably, energy waste caused by line overload can be avoided.

Equipment lifespan: Stable voltage and current can extend the service life of electrical appliances and reduce replacement costs.
