Detailed explanation-1: -Worn cords can cause shock, short circuits or a fire. Pull the plastic housing of the electric plug to take it out of the wall socket; never pull on the cord. Do not overload electric outlets with too many items plugged in at once.

Detailed explanation-2: -Plugs and Cords Unplug power cords by holding the plug and pulling it out gently. Pulling the cord may cause a break in the wire resulting in a short circuit. Always switch off the power before plugging and unplugging a power cord. This practice will prevent sparks which may damage the plug and cause a fire.

Detailed explanation-3: -Does Leaving The Plug In Use Electricity? So let’s lay down some facts. Plug sockets do not produce energy if they are not switched on, and empty sockets do not produce electricity because you need a full-completed circuit to get the energy flow. So turning off empty sockets doesn’t really do anything.

Detailed explanation-4: -Don’t mix electricity and water. When unplugging a cord, pull on the plug–not the cord. Do not place cords where people will be walking, drape cords over metal objects or coil cords while they’re in use. Avoid using extension cords. Never cut off the third prong on an electrical plug.
