Electric Vehicle Charging - Connectors, AC / DC, Home or Away
Charging electric vehicles using AC or DC, and the Type 2 connector which is found on most recent electric vehicles in the UK and most of the world.
Also covers older vehicles with Type 1 and CHAdeMO connectors, and the situation with Tesla vehicles and charging.
Most of this does not apply to the USA, where Type 1 and Type 1 CCS is common for existing non-Tesla vehicles and Tesla has it's own proprietary incompatible connector which is now being used by several other manufacturers.
Wiring for frost thermostats on S plan, Y plan and combination boiler heating systems. This uses two thermostats in series, the first senses air temperature and the second the temperature of the return heating pipe, so that if activated, the boiler only stays on long enough for the pipes to be heated, rather than heating the whole building.
Many boilers have internal frost protection, but that only senses temperature within the boiler, which may not be sufficient if the boiler is located in a warmer part of the building such as in an upstairs room.

The dangerous extension lead is connected to a moderate load. Even with only 6 amps the temperature rises and in 4 minutes has reached 300C and completely destroyed the cable.
The plastic casing is flammable and continues to burn until it's all consumed by the fire.

Two very similar 5 amp fuses, one for UK plugs and one for consumer units. Attempting to use a BS1362 plug fuse for a consumer unit will cause damage to the fuseholder, as the plug fuse is longer.

Wire connector strips usually known as 'chocblocks'.
These can be snapped apart and older ones were usually chocolate brown, hence the name.
New ones are generally white or transparent, but the name has persisted.
