you are travelling to South Africa and find standard travel
plugs
a bit fiddly or awkward to use, or if you require a guaranteed earth
connection, the sa2uk1
travelplug is the travel plug for you.
Safety Standards To start with, the sa2uk1
travelplug comes with a fitted South African plug (shown opposite).The plug is designed to fit perfectly into standard South African sockets. This ensures no fiddling around to get a standard travel plug to fit properly, and also provides the correct earth continuity. Sometimes, standard travel plugs do not allow the earth pin to be connected (a potentially dangerous situation when using earthed appliances like travel irons, etc.) Connected to the South African plug is approximately 40cm (16") of flex. This in turn connects to the single UK socket. This socket
is made from high impact resilient rubber for durability. It
is designed to withstand harsh working conditions, and its strength
makes it ideal for use in a travelplug system such as this.Unlike UK 13A plugs, South African plugs have no fuse. Therefore, to ensure the same level of safety as in the UK, any UK plugs used with this socket must be fitted with a standard fuse no greater than 13A. Overall, the sa2uk1 travelplug system provides a safe, unique solution to using electrical items up to a maximum of 3000 watts. The plug slides smoothly and effortlessly into South African sockets, and guarantees earth continuity. The socket provides a standard UK outlet for travel irons, travel hair dryers, and all battery chargers, etc. The sa2uk1 travelplug system has been designed to provide many many years of trouble free use, and looks great - a real must for all travellers. The sa2uk1
components conform to British Standards, and all relevant international
certifications. This system is
designed for use up to 13A. It is very important to ensure that all
appliances have a current rating below this, and have a fuse
no greater than 13A in their UK plug.
