Name of This Adapter Continental Appliance

by ultralife » Sat Aug 17, 2019 7:38 am

Hi all,
I would like to change the plug on a continental appliance and would like to know the name of the plug I require or, better even, links to the product I need.
I looked through the Internet but pretty hard without knowing the name.
Attached is a photo of the device with its plug.
Many thanks.
Vincent.

We don't have anything like that, which is why you can not find one.

I assume you want to know how much energy a device that you plug in uses?
If so I suggest you go onto ebay and look for "power consumption meter" they do what you want and cost less than £10 and no faffing around.

It's called a Schuko plug, and you could get two adaptors one British to Schuko and one Schuko to British but you would need to be careful the adaptor has an earth, and for the pair Amazon price around £12 and not much more and you can buy a complete energy meter as you have already been told on the other forum.
