Paul,
I have just had an email from Graham,
he said that the place where the outlet came from, is pretty isolated.
Apparently, a Chinese guy made the socket when he was living in the house and when he sold the house, the new owner wondered why it would'nt work!?. [Linked Image]
The guy also used old cable I think, that's 2.5mm Solid core w/ stranded Earth.
djk,
You're right, it would be easier to just buy a socket and in this case, safer. [Linked Image]
Judging by the size of the P-N slots, this is the 25A model. [Linked Image]
