- SpecialistK 4mo agoC13/C14 connectors are even known as "kettle leads" in some places.
- blahlabs 4mo agoCommonly referred to as "jug plugs" in Australia.
- Chaosvex 4mo agoKettle plugs in the UK, close enough. I'm not sure if most kettles even use them at this point.
- asplake 4mo ago“Kettle lead” is definitely good here too. It is, after all, more than just a plug.
- Chaosvex 4mo agoYeah, I know, I was just giving the colloquial name for them in the UK. We like calling things plugs, including what you might call a socket or outlet. Not exclusively but very commonly.
- SpecialistK 4mo agoI'm from the UK (although haven't been there for a decade+) and remember "lead" being used in place of "cable" or "cord" by those around me. Plug would be the other end, which goes into the Mains.
