When a wet electric plug is inserted into a socket, the moisture can create a conductive path for electricity, increasing the risk of short circuits, electrical shock, or fire. Water can compromise the insulation of the plug and socket, potentially leading to arcing or sparking. This hazardous situation can result in serious injury or damage to electrical devices. It's crucial to keep electrical plugs and sockets dry to ensure safety.

Why third pin is plastic in 3 pin plug?
Double-insulated electrical appliances, such as electric drills, only require two connections -a line and a neutral- to the supply. An earth (ground) connection is unnecessary. In the UK, all electric socket outlets have shutters that blank off the line and neutral terminals when there is no plug inserted. These shutters are operated by the earth pin of the plug. As double-insulated appliances don't require an earth connection, a plastic earth pin is moulded into the plug in order to open the socket shutters in place of a normal metallic earth pin.
