    I have a problem in the kitchen. I have an elegant cooker. When plugging it into the socket, it "shoots" electricity, then everything works normally. The pins in the stove are a little burnt. A similar situation is with the laptop power supply.

    However, there is no problem with other equipment such as a hair dryer, iron, phone charger, hair dryer.

    Is it dangerous? Need to call an electrician? I don't want any short circuit at home.

    On, there is no switch, the diodes light up immediately. It just doesn't heat up. It can be said that after inserting the plug, it is in standby mode and waits for the heating to start.

    If it does not heat up, the load is negligible at this point, but the socket and plug should be replaced anyway. The problem will surely stop. Just be sure to have an electrician do it.

    Completely normal. Each of these sparking devices has filters (with large capacities). And the Lapa power supply is, after all, a switching power supply, so it has a good current kick at the start.

    After the primo. Do not disconnect the hob any more from the socket. Unless you are going away for longer. It is better to turn the laptop on to a surge protector and then the switch, although the manufacturer had to foresee these circumstances and the device should survive it.
    Replace sockets if they are burned.

    These devices are too low power (charger) or do not have filters that give noticeable effects (although some dryers can).

    PS. It is not always the best idea to disconnect everything from the sockets.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around a user's concern about electrical sparking when connecting a cooker and a laptop to a socket. The user notes that the cooker has burnt pins and experiences sparking upon connection, while other devices like hair dryers and phone chargers do not exhibit this issue. Responses suggest that the sparking is likely due to burnt contacts in the socket and plug, and it is recommended to replace these components. The phenomenon of inrush current is also mentioned, indicating that devices like the laptop power supply can cause a surge when powered on. It is advised to consult an electrician for safe replacement and to avoid disconnecting the cooker frequently to prevent further issues.
