We also won't allow the shaver type 2 pin plugs with the adaptors.


Not even the "proper" adaptors with fuses, e.g.

wer-connections-fcp-bk-3a

These are well made and I've used several.


Not as far as I know, we're just told we can't use shaver adapter plugs.
of course this sort of directive rarley comes from anyone thast knows
about anything other than administration and creating a meaningful job out
of nothing. Normally I'd suggest that we would cut off the two pin socket
and hardwire a proper 3 pin plug to it.


That would be an interesting shave with my braun, as what comes
out of the 2-pin plug down the wire is something like 4VDC.
