Which item is explicitly allowed to be plugged in unattended?

• A. Mini Fridges
• B. Monitors
• C. Curling irons
• D. Blow dryers

Answer: (A)

In safety terms, items that can stay plugged in unattended are those with minimal fire risk and built-in safeguards for continuous operation. A mini fridge fits this, because it is designed for long-term, unattended use and relies on a thermostat and protective circuits to regulate cooling without producing dangerous heat. Curling irons and blow dryers, by contrast, generate significant heat and can ignite fabrics or cause overheating if left on, so they should be unplugged when not actively in use. Monitors are low-risk electronics, but the scenario points to the item explicitly allowed for unattended plugging, which is the mini fridge due to its design for continuous operation.
