FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Containers
How do I know the power plug is ok?
An intact power plug should have four metal pins, of which the biggest one is the so-called earth plug. To ensure that a power plug is correctly connected to a power socket, a small plastic guide (shown on the picture on top of the plug) will ensure that the power plug is correctly inserted into the power socket. When such guides are being removed, the risk of incorrectly connecting a container is high, which could lead to damage and/or improper functioning of the container.
Is there a difference between cbm and cmh?
The correct abbreviation is cmh (cubic meter per hour), but commonly people also use cbm(h) as an abbreviation – both indicate the same.
