* IEC 60309 ( BS 4343 ), so-called " Commando " plug and socket

The industrial sockets were standardized in the 1960s in the CEE 17 series that was adopted in the UK as BS 4343 and which were later to become the IEC 60309 standard.

In the United Kingdom, this standard was first adopted as BS 4343: 1968 and has since been replaced by its European equivalent EN 60309: 1999, catalogued in the BSI system as BS EN 60309: 1999.

In Europe, the most common range of heavy commercial and industrial plugs are made to IEC 60309 ( formerly IEC 309 ) and various standards based on it ( including BS 4343 and BS EN 60309-2 ).

* BS 0 A standard for standards specifies Development, Structure and Drafting of British Standards themselves.

* BS 31 for steel conduit and fittings for electrical wiring

* BS 88 a specification for cartridge fuses for voltages up to and including 1000 V a. c. and 1500 V d. c.

* BS 196 for protected-type non-reversible plugs, socket-outlets cable-couplers and appliance-couplers with earthing contacts for single phase a. c. circuits up to 250 volts

* BS 308 a now deleted standard for engineering drawing conventions, having been absorbed into BS 8888.

* BS 336 for fire hose couplings and ancillary equipment

* BS 381 for colours used in identification, coding and other special purposes

* BS 476 for fire resistance of building materials / elements

* BS 546 for mains power plugs and sockets ( older standard )

* BS 857 for safety glass for land transport

* BS 1088 for marine plywood

* BS 1192 for Construction Drawing Practice.

* BS 1361 for cartridge fuses for a. c. circuits in domestic and similar premises

* BS 1363 for mains power plugs and sockets

* BS 1572: 1949 Colours for Flat Finishes for Wall Decoration

* BS 1881: 201 Methods of Testing Concrete Part 201: Guide to the Use of Non-Destructive Methods of Test for Hardened Concrete

* BS 2660 for colours for building and decorative paints

* BS 3506 for unplasticized PVC pipe for industrial uses

At Stanford University he received BS and MS degrees in industrial engineering, followed by an MBA degree from Stanford Business School in 1967.

BS 7671: 2001 ( AMD No 2: 2004 ) concerns the safety of electrical wiring in buildings ( dwellings, commercial, industrial or otherwise ) – generally known as the " Regs " ( wiring regulations ) – and succeeds the previous publication the 16th Edition of the Wiring Regulations.

He received his BS in electrical engineering from the University of California, Berkeley in 1937.

He received his BS degree in electrical engineering in 1953 from Oregon State University, later receiving an MBA degree from Stanford University.

The regulation requires all socket outlet units to comply with the requirements of BS 1363-2 Specification for 13A switched and unswitched socket-outlets and with the requirements of BS 5733 Specification for General requirements for electrical accessories.

After serving in the United States Navy between 1944 and 1946, Olsen attended the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he earned an BS ( 1950 ) and an MS ( 1952 ) degrees in electrical engineering.

Mead studied electrical engineering at Caltech, getting his BS in 1956, his MS in 1957, and his PhD degree in 1960.

In England and Wales, the Building Regulations ( Approved Document: Part P ) require that domestic electrical installations are designed and installed safely according to the " fundamental principles " given in British Standard BS 7671 Chapter 13.

Maidique earned a BS ( 1962 ), MS ( 1964 ), and PhD ( 1970 ) in electrical engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

* a name for the 15 amp BS 546 electrical plug used in South Africa

British Standard BS 7671 " Requirements for electrical installations " is the national standard in the United Kingdom for low voltage electrical installations.

There are old electrical plugs that can be inserted into the British sockets BS 1363 or BS 546 without any trouble.

In this case, it is necessary to get the wiring updated to BS 1363 by a " registered electrical contractor " ( see below ).

The latest versions of many European wiring regulations ( e. g., BS 7671 in the UK ) follow the section structure of IEC 60364 very closely, but contain additional language to cater for historic national practice and to simplify field use and determination of compliance by electrical tradesmen and inspectors.

Born in Prairieville, Louisiana, he attended Louisiana State University where he earned Bachelor of Science ( BS ) and Master of Science ( MS ) degrees in electrical engineering, and a Juris Doctor ( JD ) from the Paul M. Hebert Law Center.

In the UK, power strips are required to be protected by the fuse in the BS 1363 plug.

Where loads other than BS 1363 sockets are connected to a ring circuit or it is desired to place more than one socket for low power equipment on a spur, a BS 1363 fused connection unit ( FCU ) is used.

First-class seats have BS 1363 sockets providing AC power for laptops or mobile phone charges, while the car at the other end is standard-class throughout and appears ordinary but has BS1363 sockets under the tables.

According to the book Men in White ( 2009 ) which provided insight into the PAP's history and years in power, PAP officials warned on the final night of campaigning that if BS won, Malaysia would send troops into Singapore and invoke emergency powers in place of the incoming government.

In this case, new BS 1363 compliant power cords are available for you in electronic stores ( many of them are located at Apliu Street ) in Sham Shui Po.
