Loads of appliances are equipped with two-pin plugs, ranging from a little hairdryer (20W) to electric cookers (3,000W).

Some of these appliances will lose even the guarantee if the plug is changed to a safe three-pin plug. Appliances in two-pin plugs are excluding the earth; therefore appliances without earth don’t cut the circuit breaker in case of an emergency. Can’t we have a law that excludes appliances with two-pin plugs from the Maltese market? Safety must come first.
