I think these outlets might also take 2-amp British Standard 546 plugs (really tiny suckers), but not the 5-amp (a bit larger) variety.
Other way around Sven. The British 2-pin 5A plugs are very similar to the "Euro" plug, except that the pins are slightly larger in diameter, spaced very slightly closer together, and are a fraction shorter.
This type of combination outlet, minus the grounding connection, is sometimes found on our dual-voltage shaver outlets. British shavers still come fitted with the 2-prong 5A plug.
As you say, the 2A plug is really tiny. I'll see if I can dig out some of these over the weekend and post some pics in another thread for comparison.
