With some of those moulded plugs, the fuseholder isn't even connected. And I bet that cable is Copper-clad aluminium with inadequate insulation thickness.
I come across fuses sometimes and they weigh so light, almost the same as a feather when compared to others. Is this a warning sign that the fuse is dodgy ?
Wow thats opened my eyes! I think more people should know about this not just PAT testers!

Hi Mike, was going to say the same. BigClive has show an example of the fuse not being in circuit before
Cheers for the advice here, I didn't know about the dimensions of the plug criteria I will get one of those cards.
Great advice. I see it's a made in China adaptor also.That plug checker is a great tool i will try to get hold of one of those.

it mainly comes experience. you can spot the bad ones a mile off
Would you replace the plug and pass the AC adaptor?
no sadly not, I would fail the whole unit based on what I outlined in the video
That's like a TV psu
this came from an LED strip light in a display unit.
