What is a "stopcock"?
A stopcock is a valve that controls the flow of water through a pipe. It is commonly used to turn the water supply on or off, either to a single appliance or to the entire plumbing system of a building. Stopcocks are typically located where the water supply enters a home or building, allowing one to shut off the water in case of a leak, repair, or emergency. By turning the handle or knob, one can easily control the flow of water to prevent waste or damage.
Example
The plumber turned off the stopcock to fix the leaky pipe under the sink.
If there is a burst pipe, you should immediately close the stopcock to stop the water flow.
The landlord showed me where the stopcock is located in case of an emergency.
