When choosing a surface box, it is indeed necessary to consider the number of sockets installed, which is one of the key factors determining the size, specifications, and port configuration of the surface box. Different application scenarios have different requirements for the number of sockets. For example, a home bedroom may only require one power socket, while an office, computer room, or industrial environment may require multiple power sockets, network interfaces, telephone jacks, and even audio and video connection ports. If the number of sockets is not specified in advance, there may be problems such as insufficient space or overcrowded interfaces after installation, which are not conducive to heat dissipation and maintenance.
The internal space of the surface box needs to be sufficient to accommodate all socket modules and corresponding wiring. If there are many sockets, it is recommended to choose a high-capacity multi junction surface box or a modular surface box that can be combined and expanded to provide sufficient installation space and wiring space. Reasonably configuring the number of sockets not only helps improve the cleanliness and practicality of installation, but also facilitates later system maintenance and upgrades. At the same time, if there is a possibility of future expansion in practical use, a certain amount of space should be reserved in advance when choosing the surface box, which can avoid waste and trouble caused by reinstalling or replacing the box body in the future.
