    Notes for Americans:

    1. Until 1992 you had to wire your own plugs onto new electrical appliances (they were sold without pre-molded plugs).

    2. Mains voltage is 230VAC, not 110VAC. It'll kill ya.

    3. If you follow ChatGPT's advice *YOU WILL DIE*.

    @cstross@wandering.shop I love the BS1363 plug. US wall plugs are FLIMSY JUNK.

    Also, ChatGPT doesn't even have the PINS in the right places.

    I saw a similar LLM-generated diagram of how to wire an outlet into a wall box. It was even more surreal.

                  @cstross I do these threads every so often. My most recent one was on my Bluesky where I got four LLMs to draw maps progressively getting more zoomed in (the World, Europe, UK, Yorkshire, York).

                  Things got worse each time you zoomed in, sometimes with "memories" from the previous image. My favourite was the attached version of Yorkshire.

                  I'll do another one in a month or two.

                    @cstross that one is such obvious garbage that even if someone tried to follow it they'd fail.

                    The danger is with plausible but wrong. OTOH the one showing phase and neural linked is going to go bang quickly, where swapping phase and earth is a known killer. Maybe that's why the LLM wanted a fused earth?

                        @cstross That one at least is so bad that you couldn't actually match it to anything in a real plug. The one up-thread is much worse, because it looks more or less like the innards of a plug.

                                        I mean, you'd hope that a plug which shorts live and earth would just trip the house breaker or RCD, but it could also make nearby appliances live or cause a fire, if there's a fault or if the rest of the wiring is to the same standard
