ECN Forum Forums Photo Discussion Forums Electrical Nostalgia Old Fittings (UK)

Some electrical fittings in a house I'm working in.

The white tube is porcelain and was the service entrance through the outside stonebuilt wall.

The tube cut off just above the mantelpiece is an original victorian acetylene gas light pipe. It's the equivalent of a 5 amp round pin socket, plumbing in lights around the room goes back long before electricity.
