An Extra Layer of Safety for Children
The holes also help the prongs sit deeper and more securely inside the outlet. For families with little ones, this small detail can make a meaningful difference. A deeply seated plug is harder for a child to wiggle loose or tamper with, reducing the chance of accidental contact with live metal parts.
Useful During Manufacturing and Packaging
You may have noticed that some new electronics come with a plastic tie, tag, or security loop attached through those holes. Manufacturers often rely on them for:
- tamper-evident seals
- product tags
- packaging ties that keep cords neatly wrapped
By using what’s already built into the plug, companies avoid extra materials, cut down on waste, and keep packaging simpler and more efficient.
A Small Detail With Big Purpose
The next time you plug in a lamp or charge your phone, take a moment to appreciate how even the smallest details can make a meaningful difference.
