ECN Forum Forums Photo Discussion Forums Photo Gallery Nostalgia from the 1940s, various 3 pin outlets

A plug-in strip using 3 pin outlets, letting you select which circuit you want to load. And other 3 pin Aussie style outlets and plugs from H&H.

Interesting concept. 2 'hots' & 1 neutral. I wonder why this didn't catch on big??

These don't look very T/R either. That whole rail is just begging to be probed with a nail file.

reminds me of a time when I plugged in a hand drill and it smoked on me. the receptacle was wired for 240 V not sure why, it was in a kitchen beside the kitchen table.

Does anyone remember ITE Electrostrip? Not the same as the product above, but quite similar, older product was L & N, later product was L,N,& G.
