Time to ask The Question.

If there were plugs and sockets that took up half or a third the space
of today's, and were fully compatible with 13A plugs/skts, meaning you
could plug either kind of plug into any and all sockets, and they were
to all the usual BS etc, would you choose to use them? Why?


Why not just use the superior continental plug/sockets ?
Not sure how they stand under part P but they cannot actually be banned here
as they are the approved IEC socket, not our oversized Swedish-reject
monstrosity.
