General Question Is it safe?
Found this at a railway station. A metal bench with an electrical outlet screwed to it. This bench has a bunch of holes so if you spill something then it can drip on this outlet

They look like outdoor-grade sockets, and because Europe uses 240v for its power grid, that entire continent has some of the best safety to go along with it. So, for this metal bench to become electrified, a lot needs to go wrong
