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.


Oh well, too late now!

  • "Why not put it in the socket (outlet)?" Because the normal reason for a fuse to blow is a fault in the appliance so you take the faulty appliance together with the blown fuse to someone who can fix it.
