Bulgin mains plugs and sockets here.

[Yorkie]

I don't recall who, but I'm sure a little while ago someone was trying to source the small Bulgin mains sockets and plugs which have often been used on test gear and such like in the past. The male plug of course fits on the chassis, and the female socket on the mains lead - be decidely dodgy to be otherwise! They're much smaller and neater than standard IEC sockets and plugs, especially on small items of homebrew test gear, and unlike those rather flimsy 'figure of eight' sockets and plugs as used on some radios, electric razors etc, the Bulgin ones have an earth pin.

Might be useful to someone on the forum, and cheap enough too:

Great John - I did wonder if I'd lost the plot and had imagined it!

Thanks for this - and looking around I see some interesting stuff on there. The tagstrip (160766668584) looks good.

Cheers,

Thanks for this David. I have a Wayne Kerr B221 autobalance bridge that has a mains option that uses a Bulgin connector, as well as a PP3.
