For the 12 years I have been turning, I habitually unplug my lathe when I leave the shop. I don’t know if it is “required” or even if it is “advisable.” But, it just seems to be a guaranteed preventative measure that has no cost and is 100% effective. I honestly am amused at this debate and have enjoyed seeing it develop. For comedic interest, I suggest including reasons for “not unplugging.” That data will no doubt add considerable interest!
