"unearthed"? I know that isn't meant literally, but I don't know
what you do mean. What is "unearthed" in this context?
Two-pin mains plug vs three-pin mains plug (live, neutral, earth).
aaa-Ha. Australian English vs. American English.

I understand now. What you call "earth", I call "ground". What you
call "pin", I call "prong". I also haven't seen "mains" used that way
before. When I hear "Mains", I think of a surname. (Decades ago, I had
a friend and co-worker surnamed "Mains". There was also a Christian
ministry leader named David Mains.)
Thank-you.
Bill.
