Wouldn't you be better using non-fused BS546 for the LV ?

The BS1363 plugs' fuses could blow and be difficult to replace as they're not easy to replace outside the UK/Ireland.

There are several non-standard outlets available to fit BS boxes too which might be useful.

The "cruisers" you hire to pleasure boat on the river shannon and the inland waterways here in Ireland use BS546 5Amp plugs and sockets for their DC power outlets. Seems to work quite nicely.

Why would anyone fit a socket behind the toilet!?

As for Irish Rail's excuses:

"Ladies and gentlemen you may have noticed that our train has been stopped for the last 22 mins. This is for technical reasons."

"... due to a signalling failure there will be no tea or coffee served on board this train"

or the classic:
"... shhhhh kshhhh kssss kreeshh – technical difficulties - kschhh"

everyone shrugs and looks at eachother and goes back to typing, playing with their mobiles or reading the newspaper.
