Default Re: Faulty mains plug?

That is not the first time I have heard of that happening as it happened to me too.

I had a plug fail with a fault between the fuseholder and the live pin, it was on a kettle and the side of the plug melted exposing live metal.

The socket which the plug was inserted into needed replacing too.
