Default Re: Any other plug collectors out there?

I tested one of those plugs like the one on the LED sign to destruction.
Mine was a C13 on the other end.
I made a lead with all three pins connected to a male to match C13 to the earth pin of a good 13 amp plug and connected it to an analogue PAT tester.
It read well over an ohm per conductor using the earth continuity function.
It would be scorching hot well before the 32 amp breaker tripped.
