Double the pleasure, double the fun?Question, on these bi wire cables, what are the clear poles for? Wouldn't they block the cable from plugging into a standard speaker port?

I'm wondering if it's some sort of grounding plug that sits against the speaker taps but I'm still very confused. It seems to be common but I don't get it.Double the pleasure, double the fun?
Haven’t the foggiest mate.
But plastic is generally an insulator, which means it can’t be a ground. I’m kind of wondering if it’s to prevent getting plugged into an electric socket in Europe, similar to how the banana plug inputs have inserts blocking them.I'm wondering if it's some sort of grounding plug that sits against the speaker taps but I'm still very confused.

Yeah that's what I couldn't figure out. Why it's plastic, or at least I'm assuming it is. I feel like @OMC will know the answer to this for sure. It seems to be a very common type of connector.But plastic is generally an insulator, which means it can’t be a ground.

Thanks for the props, @Mather, but I’m more clueless than usual on this one. Never seen this before.Yeah that's what I couldn't figure out. Why it's plastic, or at least I'm assuming it is. I feel like @OMC will know the answer to this for sure. It seems to be a very common type of connector.
That would make sense though regarding the electrical outlets.
Those are the kinkiest cables I've ever seen.Question, on these bi wire cables, what are the clear poles for? Wouldn't they block the cable from plugging into a standard speaker port?
