I just chop off all the shrouds. I'm not an electrician, the times when I use any voltage above 40 or 50 or so are very rare, and I would never yank an energized plug anyway. Any time I do use dangerous voltages, I prepare an entire test setup with the power completely disconnected, power it up, and all I allow myself to do without shutting down the power is push buttons. I've got too much older stuff that won't take shrouded plugs to mess around with them.
