I have four very short (6") cables with a 13A socket on one end and an

I had at least one of those in my University of Essex study bedroom, as
they didn't provide 13 amp sockets.

Worse were the study bedrooms in Darwin College at Kent. They had a 2.5A
circuit breaker for the whole room, but located in the room. This wa
