Funnily enough we had such a cable at home for reasons unknown to me. Then of course the inevitable happened: I was electrocuted by it. I'm fine, but I can definitely agree that such a cable should not ever be made, whatever the reasoning, just don't do it.

if you have a generator and your house has no electricity, you can power your house by plugging a generator into an outlet.

I am not an electrician and dont know how this would safely be done, i assume your house would need to be disconnected from the grid or something.
