(c) Energy efficiency and safety are

important considerations in the
purchase and use of electrical
products and appliances.
(i) A fuse in a power plug is labelled
8 A. What does the label 8A
mean?
(ii) Table 12.3 shows four types of
power socket remains extension
P, Q, R and S available in a
supermarket.
You are asked to evaluate the
characteristics of the four power
socket extensions for normal
home use. Study the pictures
and the specifications for the
following aspects.
- Safety
- Energy efficiency
- Control of electrical
appliance
Using physics concept, explain
the suitability of the power
socket extensions for each
aspect. Determine the most
suitable socket extension and
justify your choice.

Calculate,
(i)
The total energy consumed in
one day.
(ii)
The total energy consumed by
the appliance in on month (30
days).
(iii) The total cost in one month
(30 days)
