International plugs and sockets

As we leave the EU, with all its standardization, I am bound to wonder why plugs and sockets have not been subject to this process. It isn't even that we have our funny square pins and the rest have round ones. Type C (2 pin) is common, but earthed plugs are mostly type E or F. IEC site.

  • I suppose some might be expecting us to follow the lead of those pathetic "Metric Martyrs" we used to hear so much about some years ago. Complete cranks methinks. So we might have imperial Volts, Amps and Ohms etc etc rather than the S.I. brand.

    Hmm I`ll have to get some Brexit Calibrated Test Gear now!
