The idiocy of the non-technical

[Ed_Dinning]

Hi Gents, 3 piun 5 and 15A types are still available and used extensively in theater lighting circuits. The smaller 3 pin 3A are also available and were designed to use with things like standard lamps.
The shrouded pin 13A plugs can be a menace; 2 days ago I had to change on that had been badly cooked (and also damaged the socket outlet) on a washing machine.
