Why should you not overload plug sockets?
because it can overload and then create to much heat and cause a fire
Why should never place a metal in a plug socket?
it is a fatal risk of getting electrocuted if you insert any metal piece into a plug socket. Hence do not put any metal in to plug socket
What would happen if you overloaded a plug socket?
Basically if you overload a socket, it will burn the circuit. because basically pretend you had one socket and you had 5 plugs plugged into it but linked up to the other plug thing. All of the electricity will go into every socket but then will explode and kill all of the sockets.
What is the common way of referring to a plug and its corresponding socket as per the electrical engineering terminology?
Plug and socket, plug and socket outlet, plug and receptacle or plain plug and outlet all seem to be in common usage in the US. Plug and socket is possibly the only wording commonly used in the UK. [Plug and socket outlet sounds ok to a me, as a Brit, but we never really use that expression in the UK. Plug and outlet or plug and receptacle actually sound very strange!]

How do you get socket out of spark plug sleeve as its stuck right above the plug?
Penetrating Oil a good brand like GUNK! Spray that down the sleeve and it should lubricate the socket enough to release it.
You broke a plug trying to remove it what is the best way to get it out?
Usually if you break a plug it is only the top white ceramic part. The only time this would be a problem is if your plugs are in the top of the head and down in a hole. They do make needle nose pliers long enough to reach down and get the plug. The ceramic part should have come out with the socket if using a regular spark plug socket. That would leave just the base. Take the socket and put a piece of tape on the inside of the socket on each face. Bring it out over the edge of the socket and onto the outside. This will make the socket enough smaller that it should hold on to the base of the spark plug so you can get it out.
Why not to overload plug sockets?
It will cause a fire! x
If you pull a plug out of a socket that's on can you get an electric shock?
You will only be shocked if you touch the prongs while they are still in the socket or if there is a defect in the cord or plug. If you be sure to touch only the plastic part you should be fine.
