to stop them from moving
The metal prongs of a plug are sealed in plastic and rubber for insulation and safety purposes. This helps to prevent electrical shocks and short circuits by providing a protective barrier between the conductive metal prongs and the user.
Plastic insulates the prongs from one another, yet is hard enough to keep them at the proper distance to be put into the wall outlet and allow a person to grip the plug.
I think No, plastic is not a better insulator even compared to rubber shoes...Another AnswerYour question is a little like asking, "Is metal a better conductor than a electrolyte?". The reason for this is that there are lots of different types of plastic and various types of rubber. Without knowing exactly which sort of plastic, and what type of rubber, there is no way of knowing which is the better insulator.
Keyboards are typically made from a combination of plastic, metal, and rubber components. The keys themselves are made from plastic, with symbols often printed or engraved on top. The internal mechanisms include metal plates for support and rubber dome switches for key actuation.
The covering of a wire is typically made of materials like plastic (such as PVC), rubber, or nylon. These materials provide insulation and protection for the metal conductor inside the wire.

Three Pronged Sealed BeamThose seald beams which have three metal pins [prongs] have TWO filiments inside; one for the low beam filiment and one for the high beam filiment. The third [center] pin serves as the ground for both filiments.
