Is this a safe use of electric tape?
A spark came from the cord of a laptop charger. Upon inspection there was an area of exposed wire on the cord. My husband wrapped the area with black electric tape and plugged it right back into the wall. He insists all is well with the cord. I am inclined to throw it away. Should I?
The spark went from where to where. If only one wire is bared electrical tape should keep it from shorting out again. If two wires were bared then each should be taped separately then both together. Before taping the wires should be inspected. Individual strands of the wire could have melted lowering the capacity of the wire to carry current. The lower capacity wire will heat up when used normally and melt the insulation and will spark again. It is also possible that the spark came at a location where the wire was repeatedly bent increasing its resistance, heating up to the point of melting the insulation causing a spark.
If your husband has done all this inspection before tapping and has tapped it properly it should be okay. If not the new cord would be much cheaper than the cost of replacing the house when it burns down.
