Surely it's the modified plug that wouldn't fit into a 'normal' socket?

We use the 13A plugs shown in post number 14 for our comms equipment at work which is on a separate 240V UPS supply.
The earth pin is T shaped with the shank width a reduced thickness. This prevents a normal 13A plug which could have a high current rated appliance being plugged into the UPS supply and tripping it. Also the T shape earth pin cannot fit into a normal 13A socket.
