Hello Ted,

Thought about this plug, but CEE77 fits German CEE74, so could be polarity
reversal? Some of my custom products only have line fused (customer's
requirements), so cannot allow my factory to ship affected Class I stuff
with this cord. 

So when will EU/EFTA code get these plugs and sockets on the same sheet of
heavy metal music? This seems to be a good excuse as any for another war...

Any other ideas? 

thanks,
Brian

Hi Brian,

You will want the CEE 7/7 for most of Europe. It works in almost any
European outlet that doesn't accept one of the three that you mentioned. The
BS 1363 covers the UK, Ireland and Malta. The SEV 1011 only covers
Switzerland. Make sure your supplier conforms to the new SEV 1011:2009 since
Switzerland will require partially insulated pins next year. The CEI 23-16
will work only in Italy.

Want to reduce number of plug types on pwr cords. Where I need ground pin,
was thinking of reducing types to CEI23-16, SEV1011, and BS1363A.

Is this a stupid idea? Am I missing a major European plug type?

thanks,
Brian
