Back in 2005 Microsoft had offered a "protection power cord" to "resolve" the issue we cover in this video. I wouldn't say the issue is rare either.

Microsoft Announces Power Cord Replacement for Xbox
"The replacement power cords are designed to protect consumers and their Xbox consoles from rare electrical component failures that can pose a fire hazard. Fewer than one in 10,000 consoles have experienced these component failures, and, in almost all instances, any damage caused by these failures was contained within the console itself or limited to the tip of the power cord at the back of the console."
