Why do electrical appliances not have pointed surfaces?

Answer 1

because people don't like to wear gloves.

and bandaids couldn't be manufactured in enough quantity

Actually, some do. Electric knives not only have pointed ends, but sharp blades, as well. And irons have sort of point in the front, but not pointed enough to be sharp.

I stand corrected perhaps that's why i learned electronics so much easier than

easier than mechanics..

it only took about 4-5 tries to learn which end of the soldering iron to hold.

where screwdrivers and wrenches ill probably never know

those ratcheting box wrenches sometimes don't have the little lever and i still gotta take em of and turn em over about half the time

Answer 2

Electrical appliances do not have pointed surfaces to reduce the risk of electrical shocks. Pointed surfaces increase the likelihood of accidental contact and could expose users to live electricity, thereby increasing the potential for injury. The design of electrical appliances typically prioritizes user safety by minimizing sharp edges or points.
