Hey,
I have an extension lead which only had 1 thing plugged in and turned on, a blow heater from B & M.
It was in my grannys and she told me that she had to move the plug (Push it in) to get it to turn on because it kept going off, when I went to check the plug it was VERY hot, it burnt my finger.
I looked at the plug and it was totally melted on the side, you can see right into the plug.
I took it out straight away but 1 of the prongs was melted into the wall socket, it is still stuck in there now and I can't even turn the switch off because that's also melted.
Does anyone know what could have happened and what I should do?
This could have ended in such a disaster....
