The top pin of a uk plug can conduct electricity- it’s a ground or earth pin, and a lot of things still have that for safety. Look at your kettle lead, for example. It’s also not got a plastic sheath the way the conducting pins do, again for safety.
@TeraChad23Ай бұрын
I may be wrong but i think devices made from metal usually have a metallic Earth pin to reduce the chance of electrocution, which is why things like fridges and kettles and stuff have the metal pins. I am probably wrong though
@LoganT547Ай бұрын
@@TeraChad23It's a return path. In case electricity decides to take a wrong turn inside an appliance, it is redirected to the ground instead of the metal casing of the appliance. If you don't have an earth connection and the device is not double-insulated (Google it), current would go into the metal casing and shock an unsuspecting user. Also, you cannot be killed by electricity if you aren't touching the ground, as otherwise the electricity will go through your body and use you as a path to ground, which is usually where it wants to go anyways. Even worse if you have a cut or exposed tissue, as the inside of the human body conducts electricity far better than the outside. That includes your vital organs too.
