ok got two wall units 1 has this type of fitting https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/11hp32oYggL.jpg it has 2 in brow with brow flex both wired into one plug what i want is one of those multi socket power lead units (each light has a 2 pin plug and plugs into the power block) i want the power block and the plugs or plug tails as for the 2nd i just need a brown 2core perment flex conector im doing this for my dad
Can't you take them into a junction box instead of bothering with plugs & sockets? If it must be brown you can get spray paint dye for plastics (the JB)...
Those old school 80s filament lamps did come in brown and white. Wouldn't be fitting that old tat these days though! Fig-8 plugs.
i think you will find this is BROWN flex not GOLD flex i may be blonde but im not colour blind what does every 1 else think
my bad just saw the typo dam phone (sum of the keypad buttons are wearing out so have to be pressed hard to get it to type)
seams i may of sort of answered my own question with this product (btw i would down rate the fuse to a 3amp or a 5amp fuse rather than the 13amp that is fitted) as apart from being 3pin where i only need 2pin however (not 100% on this bit btw) should make these a Polarized conector (meaning it can only fit one way round) also earth will be fitted on the supply side but not used on the small output plugs
no there bi pin as in one pin at each end of the bulb either 221mm or 284mm (havent checked yet) and polarity always matters 1st as most common switches are only suppose to isolate line (live) also even if i was bayonet it could end up edison screw via an adaptor
Thats a point. BC lamp holders polarity doesn't matter - however when fitting ES lamp holders I always make sure that the centre contact is live. You can buy BC to ES converters, and if these are used then it is hit or miss as to whether the centre contact is live - hmmmmmmm
makes you want to get a bc to es adaptor (and a es test fitting adaptor) to check them all however maybe overthinking this can a bc go in only 1 way round or can the pins (bulb side) end up swaped round? Hmmmmm makes the mind boggle
