Answer:

Hey!!!!

(a) The handles of a saucepan are made of thermosetting plastic because it is a bad conductor of heat and does not get heated up while cooking and keep our hand safe.

 (b) Electric plugs/ switches is made of thermosetting plastic because it is a bad conductor of electricity. The electric current does not pass through such plastics and user is safe from any kind of shock.

Hope this Helped....
