Electrocution from earphones in a phone that was charging is caused by a combination of two factors: the charging voltage and the electric current from the earphones. When both of these factors are present, it can result in a dangerous electric shock.
It is not recommended to use earphones while your phone is charging. This is because the earphones may carry an electrical current, which can combine with the charging voltage and cause an electric shock.
Yes, using third-party earphones can increase the risk of electrocution. These earphones may not have the same level of quality control and safety standards as the ones provided by the phone manufacturer, making them more prone to electrical malfunctions.
To prevent electrocution from earphones in a phone that was charging, it is important to use high-quality earphones provided by the phone manufacturer. Additionally, avoid using earphones while your phone is charging and make sure to unplug your phone before using earphones.
If you experience an electric shock from your earphones while your phone is charging, seek medical attention immediately. Even if the shock does not seem serious, it is important to get checked by a medical professional to ensure there are no underlying injuries.
