Default Re: Mains plug restoration

I was curious as to when sleeved pins became a requirement on new plugs: seems it was 1984. Still a complete mixture in service here, I always ensure an appropriate fuse is fitted but otherwise plugs that are decently well made and fully intact stay in service, and pre-1984 items are likely enough to have unsleeved pins. I'd review the policy if we had any resident or visiting infants.
