The process of making extension cords. Amazing Korean power strip factory

[@sambaker3233]

I like the fact they also switch the neutral through the switch, not just the live. It shows this is a good quality product

[@dasiro]

depending on the country regulations and usage this may be required.

[@BurkenProductions]

Why do that manual mounting of parts would be easier with robots doing it. And faster.

[@a.k.3659]

There is a reason for this. In this kind of plugs and sockets (I mean the EU ones) you really can't know which one of the two holes/conductors is the live (L) one and which the neutral (N). So to play it safe, both of them should be put through a switch.

[@Woffy.]

They switch the neutral and line as their poor quality control is likely to miss the polarity reversed, doing it this way they avoid problems however it compromises the ground / Earth fault detection and is generally none compliant. There is nothing impressive in a person doing a mindless low skilled repetitive task on a dangerous machine.

[@andychow5509]

Korea uses 220v, so they really need it that way. A short circuit doesn't just hurt your finger, it kills you.

[@leokimvideo]

These are far superior Vs the stuff coming out of China

[@pomonabill220]

Amazing all the hand labor that is being used alongside the automated assembly. Keep it as cheap as possible! Is this where my power strips that have the hot and neutral swapped come from?

[@andysims4906]

Very good . Only thing missing is it should have had a PAT test or equivalent before it’s distributed

[@gh-ur2lx]

I would feel much safer using it if someone went on a 2 day training course to attach a crappy little sticker.

[@keithammleter3824]

They are brand new, just made - they don't need a PAT test. PAT testing is meant for items that may have been subject to wear and tear, which may cause wire strands to break. It is a nonsense test anyway - you can't test reliability in. Sure it can detect things like a frayed earth wire gone open circuit, but if it tests good, that means nothing - a bit more wear and tear, perhaps the next use, may cause it to go open anyway. You can test an electrical or electronic component a thousand times - it still has the same probability of failure it had before. Maybe a bit more since testing is also wear and tear. If you believe testing does any good, you believe that dice know how many times you have thrown them. One of the biggest users of the nonsense PAT test is Australia with its unionised construction industry. Enter a building site to do work and there will be signs telling you to get your power tools PAT tested. And who is doing the testing? I've been on sites where the testing is done by the union shop steward's unemployable retard son whose head is smaller than his fist. "Ooohh, he's got a plug on 'im! Orroight, I test ím." I've arrived at sites with battery powered tools and headed straight for my work location. The union guy has called out "Oi, you, get that tool PAT tested." "It's a battery po...." "OI! I TOLD YOU! GET IT TESTED OR I'LL BAN YOU FROM THE SITE". Oh well, anything for a bit of peace. I walked over to the PAT guy. PAT guy says "Has he got a plug?" "No." "Pzz off then."

[@jamesgates1074]

I like how each plug has it's own cut off switch. Every power strip I have the whole thing is either on or off.

[@DanielGlover]

I have some that do that. Computer tower unit and lots of computer things go to another non 6 way one from 1 of 3 switched out on a 3 way block and 2nd moniitor, External USB drive have output 2 and 3. Even got a little red LED on each output on the switched 3 way block. Got other on the AV. Telly kit as a 6 way non switching at all block. All sorts exist but think sometimes switch on each output is nice, I got different sorts of blocks, switched or not or 1 does the lot like your one.

[@Runefrag]

And they cost ridiculous prices, like 30 bucks for a 1m cord with 4 slots.

[@dgk42]

@@Runefrag Wow, that is expensive. I can get the same thing for $12.

[@chatrkat]

Interesting video. In the US no way OSHA would ever allow the workers fingers that close to powered press machines. My heart goes out to those workers sitting all day assembling components. Nice bright clean factory though.

[@OnTourWithGerrit]

Same here in Germany. BG (Berufsgenossenschaft) would just close down the production line immediately. But still, it is very interesting to see, how it is made.

[@lunarmale808]

Looking at the press at 6:07 appears he is using 2 hand switches which is considered the safest method here in the US, and required by OSHA for presses where 2 or more people are working in/under them at a time. Other presses in this process probably are limited enough in their force and clear enough of body parts that 2 hand switches wasn't considered worth the hassle. I am curious about the cord winder at 8:13 though, seems like it is spinning fast enough to give you at least a nice bruise if you get your arm in the way. From the quality side, the crimping technique at 7:20 leaves much to be desired, you can see some "flyer" strands that escaped the crimp at 7:34, which can cause shorting. If it were my process I would move this terminal crimping process immediately after the plug side is crimped, to minimize opportunity for damage to the stripped ends. Ideally the stripped wires would be checked for any of these bent strands before crimping and then placed securely into the crimp area, not just letting the crimper push it into the approximate area where the terminal is. That would take an extra 10-20 seconds per cable though, so maybe not appropriate to this company's market.

The engineering behind all of this is incredible. All the electrical contacts are press fit together. Only the AC mains line contacts are soldered to the power conductor strips and the ground strip. I have made my own extension power bars. I buy metal outlet boxes, outlets, wire, plugs, and etc., and hand wire everything together. Expensive, but very heavy duty. I have made my own water proof power extensions to be used outdoors.
