How are switches made safe in a bathroom?
they are on a cord that you pull
Why can't you get an electric shock from an extension cord?
you can get an electric shock from an extention cord because if you are Vaccuming your car and you pull the extention cord out of the plug you will get a 2-5 second shock
Why would you get a shock when unplugging an appliance that is turned off - I accidentally touched the metal prong on the plug as I was unplugging it - Was this why?
The switch to the appliance is down stream from where the power comes in from the plug. Even though the appliance is turned off at the switch the appliance has electricity up to the switch. As you stated there will be voltage potential right up until the pins of the appliance become disengaged from the receptacle If you have ever noticed a three blade plug, the ground pin is longer that the hot and neutral blades. What this accomplishes is that when plugging in a device the ground is made first and when un-plugging the ground is the last to be disconnected. By holding the appliance you were at the same ground potential as the appliance. By touching the "hot" side of the plug when pulling it out you became the return path for the electricity to flow. If you had touched the neutral side of the plug when pulling it out you would have felt nothing. Be careful when removing plugs from receptacles. Always pull on the plug body and never on the appliance's cord
Why should electrical connections not be unplugged by pulling the cord?
By pulling a cord out of a receptacle puts a strain on the termination points inside the cap end. In a molded type of cap this damage can not be repaired except by replacement of the cap. On a cap with screw terminals the wire may pull loose of the screws and there may be a possibility that the cord could short circuit.
How do you use appliance dolly?
There should be instructions found somewhere on the dolly but if not then here goes. Have two people perform this. Tip the appliance just enough so that you can fit the plate at the bottom of the dolly under the appliance. Make sure that the dolly is on the side of the appliance that will allow it to fit through any doorway. Once the plate on the dolly if fully under the appliance and the dolly is snug against the appliance, hook the strap around the appliance and back into the the ratchet. The strap is very, very important! Ratchet the strap until it holds the dolly tight to the appliance. Here is where some common sense comes into play. Are you strong enough to tip the appliance towards you and balance it on the dolly as you push or pull it where you want it to go? If the answer is no or you are not sure then you need to find someone that can. Many people have been crushed or injured by having a refrigerator fall on them. If you have any doubts, call someone.
