If the fitted moulded plug is not suitable for your socket, then the plug should be cut off
and an appropriate plug fitted. Destroy the old plug which is cut off as a plug with bared

be replaced an ASTA approved BS 1362 fuse of the same rating must be used. Do not
forget to refit the fuse cover. In the event of losing the fuse cover the plug must not be
used until a replacement fuse cover has been fitted. Colour of the replacement fuse
cover must be the same colour as that visible on the pin face of the plug. Fuse covers
are available from any good electrical store.
