minus-squareViking_Hippie@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoActually, if you zoom in, you’ll see that the third “hole” on the top one is a screw holding the cover in place lol
minus-squareLemmyIsFantastic@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoMystery solved. I feel dumb now lol.
minus-squarestinkycheese@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoThat can’t be safe right? Surely the screw should be placed somewhere without contact of the plug.
minus-squarezaphod@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoAs long as it’s grounded it’s fine. I’d be more concerned about someone plugging in a device that needs grounding into a socket like that.
minus-squareslazer2au@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·1 year agovery few things need grounding. Plus I have no ground wire to the outlet so i would argue it is safer to not have the grounding socket there.
minus-squareSchmuppes@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoThe screw is recessed, it will never make contact with the plug. Also, the plugs are made of plastic where the screw is located.
