Don't laugh guys,
But I see these switches still in use.
These are the original switches @ 2A rating, not the new trendy 16-20A models with polished Brass finish.
Out in the sticks, they never replace anything unless it is going to burn the house down, believe me!. [Linked Image]

Welcome woooson,

DJK is in Ireland, where they do use 32A rings, but where radial circuits feeding BS1363 outlets are apparently more common than here in the U.K.
