Fused UK Mains Plug

A three-pin plug that is rated to handle a maximum current of 13 amperes, which is the standard current rating for most UK household electrical appliances.

The 13amp 3 plug top is designed to be used with a compatible socket, which has three corresponding holes to receive the three pins on the plug. The pins are typically arranged in a triangular pattern, with one pin being slightly longer than the other two. This is a safety feature designed to ensure that the plug is inserted into the socket in the correct orientation, which helps to prevent accidental electrical shocks or fires.

The plug is typically made of a durable plastic material, with metal pins and connectors. It may also have various features, such as a built-in fuse or surge protector, to help protect against electrical damage or hazards.

When using a 13amp 3 plug top, it is important to ensure that the electrical appliance being used does not exceed the maximum current rating of the plug. Overloading a plug can cause it to overheat, which can be a fire hazard. It is also important to ensure that the plug and socket are in good condition and free from damage, as damaged plugs or sockets can also pose a safety risk.
