A user facility biomedical technician (bmt) reported that when moving the machine the power plug from a fresenius 2008t hemodialysis (hd) machine appeared melted.There was no patient involvement, no patient adverse effects were experienced, and no medical intervention was required.During troubleshooting, the bmt noticed that the power plug appeared melted near the prongs, with the plug exhibiting a orange-red hue.There was no burning smell, smoke or arcing noted, and there were no reports of sparks or flames.No damage was identified on any other components.The machine was plugged into a hospital grade ground-fault circuit interrupter (gfci) outlet, and there was no previous history of the machine failing any electrical leakage test.The biomedical technician stated there were approximately 17,579 hours on the machine at the time of the event.To resolve the reported issue, the bmt replaced the power plug.The machine passed all testing and was returned to service.The power plug was available to be returned for evaluation as it was reportedly discarded.Photographs of the melted power plug were also not available.
