Why does my charger spark when plugged into the outlet?

The area where the plug's blades enter the outlet may spark when you plug in the wall charger. Any electrical appliance that is plugged into a wall outlet may experience this, which is often normal.

 

Please get in touch with Anker if you observe any of the following when you plug your wall charger or if you have further worries about sparking:

  • Contact Anker if a spark appears from somewhere other than the plug's blades.
  • Contact Anker if you see any blemishes or damage to the wall charger.
 

If you have any questions, please contact us for further assistance.
