Hey guys,

I have recently purchased a new laptop.

This is like the second time that I’m using the charger, and I am seeing small ‘burn’ marks on the metal prongs like in the picture that I have provided.

I’ve had this with my MacBook chargers and iPad chargers as well - is this normal?

Thanks.

    Switch the socket off and plug in and then switch on to stop the arcing. It’s not super dangerous but over time it will oxidise and melt the tips of it and it can degrade it over time
