BTW, folks who think the US standard plug is scary have clearly never encountered one of our range plugs before.
(This plug is also often used for EV charging, supporting 9.6 kW continuously)
@TechConnectify As a Brit I find that on a par with an old BS1363 (or BS546, which is still used for lighting) plug without the shrouded pins (which, admittedly, I replace whenever I encounter one).
But since it's the functional equivalent of a 16A IEC 60309 Ceeform connector (ie. one that's rarely unplugged, and usually by people who know what they're doing) that doesn't bother me as much.
It looks like it does a decent job of staying attached to the socket, at least.
@kim @TechConnectify yikes I hadn't even noticed the lack of shroud on the pins. Does it at least have an earth before make feature?
