When it's been your nth time in the cold and dark that month and you still have to get to a factory tomorrow morning to make Spitfires then running an extension lead doesn't seem all that risky- and we didn't (and still don't) lose that many souls due to electrical incidents.
You don't need an enemy like the Luftwaffe to cause damage and mayhem, and risk lives and destroy homes....just leave an electrical appliance plugged in, like a washing machine or tumble drier.
