David, we have lost a few good folks in NZ through incorrectly wired extension cords.  A couple of incidents really made the news when improperly wired extension cords were used to get power to caravans.  I forget the specifics but IIRC the fatal combination required both ends to be wired wrong, the result was phase on the caravan chassis.

Having watched Mr Bean I assumed all appliances were sold in the UK without the plug?

You're not far wrong, Bean is like a fly on the wall documentary of my life

Between Mr Bean and Coronation Street I feel I am very well informed on life in the country my grandfather left as an infant in the century before last. :beer:

Just a note,

None of this should really be being discussed in open public, as someone could easily get confused and take law into their own hands and hurt themselves. A little bit of information can be worse than no information at all.

I have had a bit of private contact over this post, regarding safety issues, and that was relayed to Stew when he came over.

So I for one will not be adding any more to this post, just in case.


John

John Hill:
OK John, no problem.
