Pushing objects other than plugs into mains sockets can create serious safety hazards, including electrical shock, short circuits, and even fires. Foreign objects can conduct electricity, leading to potentially fatal consequences for anyone who comes into contact with them. Additionally, inserting inappropriate items can damage the socket and the electrical system, posing further risks. It's crucial to only use sockets for their intended purpose to ensure safety.

Is it dangerous to put plugs in wall sockets when they are switched-on English sockets?
This question may be asking if it is safe to plug things into mains wall sockets if they have been left switched on with nothing plugged-in, and if it is safer to plug things in only after the sockets have been switched off? If, and only if, that is the meaning of this question, the answer is probably: It should not be dangerous to plug something into a switched-on socket but it is always a good idea - and safer - to switch off any socket before you plug anything into it. +++ The hazard is not in the plugging-in, but may arise from the appliance itself, if it starts unexpectedly.

What type electrical plugs are used in Switzerland?
Swiss plugs are different from those of other countries. The sockets accept standard 2-pin Euro-plugs, but the 3-pin plugs have a third earth pin, same size as the other two, in a triangular formation. Thus earthed appliances need a plug adapter.

Why must you not push anything other than plugs into sockets?
You should not push anything other than plugs into sockets because doing so can create a fire hazard or cause electrical shock. Non-standard objects can short-circuit the wiring, potentially damaging the electrical system or leading to dangerous sparks. Additionally, foreign objects can obstruct the socket, rendering it unsafe for legitimate use. Always use sockets as intended to ensure safety and proper functionality.
