    The document is a diagram of a three-pin plug with labels for the earth wire and fuse. It asks questions about: 1. Identifying the metal part and labeling the earth wire and fuse. 2. Stating that some appliances don't need an earth wire if they are double insulated. 3. Explaining that a fuse burns out and stops the current when it gets too large. 4. Stating that part X is an insulator to prevent shocks. 5. Suggesting that the top must be put back on the plug for safety before connecting it to a socket.
