Default Re: Another unusual plug and some other questions

While at the workshop earlier I had a look in the unsorted fittings box and found a couple of examples to illustrate these types.

The first picture shows three easily confusable 2-pin plugs:

Left: BS 15A (displayed here using the Crater 6-way convertible plug)
Centre: MK 15A (the plug from which your 3-pin interlocking one derives)
Right: 10A (this example made by Sax)

The MK 15A pins lie between the 10A and 15A in diameter and centres.

The second picture shows (left) the DS 13A and (right) the Wandsworth, although I can't recall whether this is the 10A or 15A size - the markings are covered up by a strap that won't come off.
