I am trying to buy a single socket for one of those standard 2-pin
European (French) plugs which are commonly used on table lamps and
such. These have the same size pins and spacing as the round 10 amp
plugs but are slimmer and have 'triangular' ends. I think they're
rated at 2.5 amps.

I know the plug will fit in a bigger round socket or in a German
Schuko socket but I'd prefer to find one specifically for the smaller
plugs so that a big round one won't fit.

I want one that will flush mount if possible, I don't have much
clearance available where it's going to be installed.

It is probably easier to buy a "two pin plug" to fused 13A plug adapter.

Shaver socket is the only legitimate UK mains connector with that two

As I discovered on my first ever trip abroad with my electric shaver.

Fortunately the bloke on the hotel reception rifled through a drawer and
found a suitable adaptor for me (presumably left by past Brit !)

But that will stick out too far and anyway it's not going to be

Who said this was going to be in the UK? :-)

The shave socket *isn't* the same anyway, it is a "5 amp 2-pin" socket
and, while a euro two pin will fit into it the pins are thinner than
the socket is designed for.

They're certainly available as part of a multiway adapter, presumably
then so that you can't plug lots of 10 amp loads into a single socket.

I thought I'd seen some individual ones while wandering around French
shops.

I can find in-line ones.

Do you mean socket or adapter? I've used a few of these:

There are variations of plug entry to suit your needs.

It's not to "replace a 13A UK socket", I'd have said if it was. The
above converter will project far too much, that's why I specifically
said a flush mounted socket. I already have a surface mount one and
that just sticks out too far.

That's pretty similar to the standard round French ones in terms of

Won't what I thought was a Europlug fit a 13 amp socket if you can open

There was something else called a Euro Facilities plug. Only one I ever
saw was an aux power socket on a Jap power amp. Which switched with the
amp. Came in two and three pin.

Do you mean:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europlug
which suggests it's a CEE 7 plug, sometimes CEE 7/16.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CEE_7_...gs_and_sockets
which says:

"There is no socket defined by EN 50075; neither is there a socket specified
in CEE 7 to accept only the Europlug. Instead, the Europlug was designed to
be compatible with a range of sockets in common use in Europe. These
sockets, including the CEE 7/1, CEE 7/3 (German/"Schuko"), CEE 7/5 (French),
and most Israeli, Swiss, Danish and Italian sockets, were designed to accept
pins of various diameters, mainly 4.8 mm but also 4.0 mm and 4.5 mm, and are
usually fed by final circuits with either 10 A or 16 A overcurrent
protection devices.[8] To improve contact with socket parts the Europlug has
slightly flexible pins which converge toward their free ends. "

From that page the CEE 7/1 socket looks the most similar. Is this a
situation where you would only provide 2.5A (from your boat's inverter
perhaps) and so you want to discourage fullsize Schuko or French plugs?

Given there is no official matching socket, I think you'd need to provide
either a French or Schuko socket. I would probably lean towards Schuko,
since the large Earth prong on French sockets can foul some adapters.

(although adapters also tend to over-bend the earth spring on Schuko
sockets, so neither is great)

I would avoid Swiss as their hexagonal shape blocks a lot of plugs and
adapters; the Danish ones look OK if you never need an earth; not sure about
Israeli.
https://www.plugsocketmuseum.nl/Overview.html
is worth looking at.

I know the plug will fit in a bigger round socket or in a German
Schuko socket but I'd prefer to find one specifically for the smaller

I don't think that's feasible: the plug is *designed* to fit in a wide
variety of sockets.

I want one that will flush mount if possible, I don't have much
clearance available where it's going to be installed.

The other issue will be to find a matching backbox, if the size and screw
positions don't match between the different types.

If this is for your boat, I'd be tempted to stick with the local system.
Means it'll be easier to fix if something needs replacing, and you're not
stuck with a backbox cutout for a peculiar foreign system.

I'm just using a double Schuko socket. Remember to set it up as a
fused spur, otherwise you could find your lamp fused at 32 amps.

To be fair to the previous poster, these euro adapter plugs leave the

protrusion would be any greater than the europlug itself pointing
horizontally.

If you're talking to me (OP) it's not on a ring/power circuit, it has

Yes (OP here) I have several of those, they're actually quite a decent
way to manage the 2-pin plugs safely.

However my requirement here is to make a connection to a circuit which
*isn't* a UK power circuit, so it doesn't (and shouldn't) have 13A

When I've actually done it I guess so, though it's rather inaccessible

out too far.

It's only going to look like a bog-standard european socket really

I want one that will flush mount if possible, I don't have much
clearance available where it's going to be installed.
