gkenyon:David Bridgman:
If I was running a 10A plus load for Hours, a 16A BS4343 (Commando) socket would be my socket of choice.
Noting of course that BS 7671 prohibits those in domestic premises, because they are not shuttered.
553.1.201 Every socket-outlet for household and similar use shall be of the shuttered type and, for an AC installation, shall preferably be of a type complying with BS 1363.
If the 13 Amp plug is likely to overheat could I not apply 553.1.5 (iii) and use a caravan socket and plug?
