Default Is there a 'proper' name for Euro/French two-pin 2.5A sockets?

I am trying to buy a single socket for one of those standard 2-pin

plugs but are slimmer and have 'triangular' ends. I think they're
rated at 2.5 amps.


These BCA adaptors could do with some fettling with a hacksaw?

I was considering one to keep my shaver adaptor connected.

Ideally, I'd like a multigang version myself, wall mounting.
