WRONG!
We're not talking about current flowing on the cable. That has absolutely NOTHING to do with it.
The thread is about the cable ends arching thereby destroying the pins and the cable which occurs every time you connect/disconnect to a live plug..
If you don't believe me, do a simple experiment at home by plugging in a lamp (while shut off) to a socket slowly - you'll see the arch at the junction.
Believe it or not - your choice and I'm sure Marinco thanks you for not believing.
