There is a common stereotype that after washing you must unplug the machine, otherwise trouble will happen.

But is this really so? Experts have dotted all the i's and crossed the t's on this issue once and for all.

According to them, if you have reliable wiring at home, then it is not at all necessary to turn off the washing machine from the network after washing.

But if the wiring does not inspire 100% confidence, just to be on the safe side, pull the plug out of the socket.

Otherwise, there really could be trouble – the equipment risks burning out.

It is also important to remember that the unit should only be connected to a properly grounded outlet.

Very important: the washing machine must have a socket designed for it; no extension cords or tees are allowed.

And after each wash, it is recommended to check the appliance cable for possible damage.

If you find something like a bend or other similar defects, contact a specialist.
