Are Outlet Adapters Really Safe?
May 2025 | Read time: 1-2 Minutes
|
|
|
|
Pop into any hardware aisle and you’ll see them—little orange, yellow, or grey cubes that promise to make a two-slot outlet accept a three-prong plug. They cost pocket change and feel like an easy fix, but there’s a catch. These adapters typically come with zero instructions, so the one step that makes them ‘safe’ is often overlooked.
|
|
|
If you look closely at these adapters, they come with a metal tab (usually green) that must be screwed to a grounded outlet box. When that tab isn’t secured (or when the box behind the wall isn’t grounded to begin with), the adapter offers zero protection and can create a serious injury/shock hazard.
