    This picture shoes the fuse removed which would normally  be screwed externally  into the plug.


    I'm unaware of any 2/5/15 A plugs vintage plugs incorporating this fused pin. Modern 2 and 5 A yes but vintage no. I've only ever seen this fused pin used on some Reyrolle industrial scraping earth plugs in line with BS 196 of 1930 &/or 1961. 


    I've grabbed a 1931 catalogue which shows this type of accessory but in a 1951 catalogue, the range is reduced due to the acceptance of 13 A  plugs & sockets 


    I know, I need to get out more.........
