What to do if the refrigerator leaks electricity

As our quality of life continues to improve, refrigerators, something we could only hear about before, have gradually entered the homes of many of our friends. This has provided a lot of convenience to our friends' lives and made our lives easier. However, for electrical items, we need to pay attention to their safety. Refrigerator leakage is a very serious problem. What should we do when the refrigerator leaks electricity? Let's look at the solutions together.

Many of our friends lack common sense in this area. Some friends may not pay enough attention to the problem of electric leakage in refrigerators, thinking that it is not a big deal. This idea is wrong. In fact, high-power electrical appliances such as refrigerators are very harmful to our personal safety. Let us learn how to deal with this situation.

If the ground wire is not connected properly but the appliance is working normally, it will not affect the practicality of the refrigerator and will not cause serious consequences.

The leakage may be caused by the drainage pipe behind the refrigerator being blocked due to long-term use, causing condensation water to overflow and soak the refrigerator light switch and other electrical appliances. If the drainage pipe is unobstructed, it may also be caused by condensation water soaking the power cord under the refrigerator. Both possibilities are easy to check: check whether there is any water in the refrigerator, whether there is moisture near the switch, and go to the back of the refrigerator to see if there is any water near the lower power cord.

Please unplug the power plug before troubleshooting to avoid electric shock. If the leakage is not serious and you just feel the electricity, just wipe off the moisture and dry it thoroughly. If the leakage is serious, you should find after-sales service personnel to handle it.

As for the leakage phenomenon, you should pay attention to regularly dealing with the condensed water in the refrigerator compartment during daily use of the refrigerator (especially in summer). The refrigerator's power plug must be three-pronged, the power socket has three holes, and the vertical socket on top must be connected to the power ground wire. This way, even if there is a leakage, it can protect personal safety.

If you cannot find the cause of the leakage and the solution to the leakage yourself, you should turn off the power immediately and find a professional maintenance technician to solve it.

In our lives, when we encounter problems like electric leakage in the refrigerator, we can deal with it according to the above methods. If it still cannot be solved, for the safety of us and our families, we should turn off the power supply in time and find a professional repairman to come to our home to repair it. If the repair is not completed, we cannot continue to use it.
