It is essential that the neutral, live and earth wires are placed in the correct pin (Image credit: Getty Images/Steve Jenkins) What fuse should a plug have? Now, loosen the screws on the cable grip (strain relief) to easily connect the phase, neutral and earth wire to the related screw terminals. Disconnect the power supply (and make sure it is really swathed OFF) before servicing, repairing or installing electrical equipment. To do so, switch off the main switch in the main consumer unit or distribution board. It is a good practice to tightly twist all the wire strands and double them over before inserting in the screw terminals. This because it will avoid spreading the wire strands to other terminals as well as the screws are perfectly tightened in case of light gauge flex. Typically a plug will come with a 13A or 3A fuse. The fuse in a plug is a safety device and is there to prevent an overload of electricity. If the circuit becomes overloaded the fuse will blow and cut off the current flow of electricity. The device will stop working and the fuse will need to be replaced before the device will start working again.

Good to know: BS-1363 Plug aka UK plug is the safest plug in the world due to the following reasons. Cable grip is used to prevent the tension on the cable in normal operation and pulling out the wire strands from the screw terminals. Cable grip or strain relief should be tightly fitted around the cable after connecting the wire strands in the appropriate terminals. The distribution board should not be installed 2.2 meter above the floor, must be protected from the corrosion and away from watery areas. All the wires should be covered in the panel board (i.e. it should not hang outside the panel). Finally, there must be a safety sign near the distribution board. Now, shorten the Live and Neutral (Brown & Blue) wires in appropriate length which suitably fit in the Live and Neutral screw terminals.

Two for lighting only and perhaps being able to use a hairdryer on its lowest setting before it tripped the MCB. Never ever try to play with electricity (as it is dangerous and can be fatal) without proper guidance and care. Do the installation and repairing work in presence of experienced persons having vast knowledge and good practice who knows how to deal with electricity. A UK plug is also known as British Plug, Type G Plug or BS1363 Standard Plug by IEC = International Electrotechnical Commission) is a three pin plug used to power up electrical appliances and devices. There are multiple types of three pin plugs e.g. Type A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L etc, but the G type 3-pin plug is most common in United Kingdom, Singapore, Hong Kong, Malta, Malaysia, Ireland, Cyprus, Qatar, Oman, Kuwait, KSA, UAE, Israel, and other countries following fully or partial of IEC regulations. Remove about half an inch (10mm) of the insulation from the inner cores for all three wires i.e. brown, blue and green/with yellow stripe by using snips, knife or wire stripper. All this process should be carefully done without damaging the wire strands or conductors. If you are unsure about what kind of fuse needs to be fitted, you can replace the blown fuse with like for like i.e. if 13A replace with a 13A fuse. Another option is to take a look at the power consumption of the appliance. If below 700W a 3A fuse is the common choice. If over 700W a 13A fuse is used.First of all, remove 2″ or 5cm of the outer sheath or insulation of the cable without damaging it by using a knife, snipe nose snips or wire stripper. Always, use the right size cable and wire, proper size outlets and switch and suitable size of circuit breakers. You may also use the Wire and Cable size calculator to find the right gauge size.

Get the copper wire of the neutral (blue) wire, and gently twist between thumb and fingers to make sure there are no loose copper strands. Repeat for the live (brown) and earth (yellow and green) wires. 3. Wire up your plug There are three terminals and a fuse (rating are different which depends on the load circuit requirements) inside a UK three pin power plug as follow: The author will not be liable for any losses, injuries, or damages from the display or use of this information or if you try any circuit in wrong format.
