plug

Regards: Elliott.

First, a old plug that I got with a Nikon Labophot 2A microscope. As seen from the picture below, the pins on it are stamped/pressed! Has anyone seen this before, and did it comply with BS1363 when it was made? The plug is a two part sealed and non serviceable hard plastic plug. (Yes I cleaned...

See: https://clockwork.property/help-advice/change-fuse-plug-socket/ :ROFLMAO: Poor advice as best.

Link's below, anyone fancy buying them and testing to see what current on average they fail at. Now I knew there were dangerous and non compliant 15A BS1362 style fuses on the market, but now we seem to have 20A rated BS1362 style fuses to! :D...

Hi all. I've spent the last 6 months of the 6 months I've owned our house doing repair work on previous bodges. Luckily I've learnt a lot from people trained in both the old and new ways. One thing I need to do this month is fit new architrave and skirting to the front room. I've got the timber...

Going to do and film it remotely for safety, however how much danger would one be in by plugging the below contraption in to a socket? How dangerous? by eveares posted 15 Jan 2017 at 8:12 PM Regards: Elliott.

Picked these up at a local corner shop. Never heard of Dissmann, but I guess there's many makers of compliant (and certainly not compliant) BS1362 fuses. What's your opinion on the Fuses below? Possible knock-off clone of Bussmann fuses? 1 by eveares posted 11 Sep 2016 at 9:47 PM 2 by eveares...

Just got my self a Electrolux Built in combi microwave oven that has a connected load of 3000W. It is going along side my existing 3.5KW Electrolux steam oven. While a 13A BS1362 fuse will just about take this 3000W Load, the manual is ambiguous. On one hand it says; What suggests it has to...

Just seen a video from a fairly big UK based YouTuber, who went to Home Base to get a some bits to make up an extension lead socket. Shame he picked the 2 core 0.75mm² flex. Not sure if he know's he has not earthed it or not or the safety implications of what he has done? Video Below, see...

Just bought a Foscam IP camera (FI9853EP) along with a Foscam PSE15 POE injector that I am going to install at my grandparents. Both items were bought from foscam.uk.com Upon inspection of the POE injector, a couple of things seemed odd. First the manual in the box was the incorrect one and was...

Hi, I've looked at a few threads but would like advice on my particular set up. I want to replace a load of storage heaters (5) with plug sockets. Please can you look at the photo below and recommend how to do this? Thanks! :) https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BwS53MI0_NV0TTBXdjUxNmY0eWs

Hi guys, I was enquiring about purchasing an extra height integrated dishwasher (86.5cm tall), it needs to be a taller dishwasher as my cupboard space is bigger. Unfortunately, this size dishwasher from all of the major brands in the UK is very expensive, starting at about £600, I have however...

Apologies if this is amateur to the extreme and not particularly clear. Arrived home, electric had gone out. My partner flipped the RCD switch back up and there was a flash and a loud bang from either the washing machine or the socket it was plugged in to - unfortunately hard to tell as it was...

I know the plug conversion adapters your get with cheap Chinese products are often dangerous, but this one takes it to the whole next level. :eek::mad: See:

Anyone care to repeat this, guess my trailing socket and/or plug must be defective. Not that much force was applied. Socket has got PMS 9128 written on it, plug has PMS 9248 written on it if any help for identifying the brands.
