Abstract: A power supply control socket comprises a casing, socket apertures, a power supply control device including a fingerprint scanning unit, a fingerprint matching unit and a control unit connected together in series and a micro switch. The fingerprint scanning unit collects and transmits fingerprint information of users to the fingerprint matching unit. The fingerprint matching unit compares the fingerprint information to fingerprint templates pre-stored in the power supply control device. The control unit controls power supply according to comparison results. The micro switch is provided behind the socket apertures for closing a circuit when a plug is inserted to the socket apertures to enable the control of the control unit. The invention controls power supply to the socket by means of fingerprint authentication and the micro switch, which could greatly improve electrical safety. Thus, it is not necessary to worry about leakage of electricity even when children touch the socket.
