Well, nothing can stop that, even moulded plugs, and what's more if a
moulded plug does need to cut off (for what ever reason) the plug is
left with a lethal condition with bare wires exposed.


Err, why would cutting off a moulded plug be a common thing to do by an
idiot? Unless it's Drivel just wanting to find something else to use his
hacksaw on.

IMO moulded on plugs should be outlawed, anyone who defends their design
must be blind to their dangers.


Now if you were complaining about the dangers of badly fitted plugs in the
days when they weren't moulded on I'd have to agree with you.
