did you notice the lady switching the churn on which was plugged into a single socket with a diazed fuse.. quite common in old houses...
16A fuse on a panel with 1 socket, usually Schuko.. although that could have been BS546 too.
ESB actually has a rather amazing archive they employed film makers and researchers and were were a fairly unusual organisation as they realised that what they were doing was very signifigant so they recorded all of it on film from 1927 right up until the last islands were hooked up in the late 1970s!
They've huge film and photo archives, appliences, fixtures, fittings, network equipment, power plant equipment etc all stored safely and preserved dating from 1927 to 2003!
The ESB archives actually give a lot of insight into Irish life right through the 1900s not just into the power system as they were looking at social changes pre and post electrification.
