What area are you in? when I was with the fire service the only electricians we called out were the dno,anything else and it was left to the customer.fire brigades are not allowed to call out electricians as it breaches the rules on professional standards.

How do unfused adapters like this get onto the market anyway? There's nothing wrong with those cuboid adapters in principle, but they have to be fused. Hic.

double adaptors are a menace,they put strain on the contact tubes causing arcing and overheating.

Agreed. Plus they stick out too far and eventually get knocked out so eventually only partial contact is made. Much better with a decent quality 4 gang. Daz
