Electrically I don't see how that works since there's no interruption of the metal pin inserted into the socket like you see on a tip/ring headphone plug. Unless there's a mechanical process that energizes the live side of the inserted plug after a certain depth?
- krastanov 7y agoNo mechanical process, the wall socket is depressed in the wall, so that by the time any metal prongs connect, the prongs are hidden.
