[QUOTE="virtualcom13at, post: 224460, member: 15229"] Hey, Quote from the code of practice for in service inspection and testing of electrical equipment: Any extension lead that does not have a protective conductor (or earth wire) should be marked as defective and removed from service. (((Extension leads fitted with 3-pin plugs and sockets should never be wired with 2 core cables))) as there will always be the possibility that the lead will be inadvertently used to supply a class I appliance, which as a consequence, would not be earthed. That where I got my answer from.
