Question

Why do we cover plug pinholes which are within the reach of children with cellotape or a plastic cover when not in use?

Solution

Cover pinholes using cello tape or a plastic cover:

  1. To prevent children from receiving an electric shock, we seal plug pin holes within reach of children with cello tape or a plastic cover while they are not in use.
  2. Any child who inserts his or her figure into the socket risks receiving a fatal electric shock.

Therefore, to protect children from receiving an electric shock, we cover pinholes using cello tape or a plastic cover.
