[QUOTE="Ridge Runner, post: 640735, member: 3775"] A couple of things that are good about the UK I really like is their 240v AC power system where they have an RCD setup at the power meter where it comes in to the house but every thing you buy from the shops etc has a plug that has a changeable Fuse fitted so if it blows you undo one screw or open a little slot and replace the fuse as well as that they all have an Earth that is connected to the incoming power and all pipes, sinks and Baths and showers and anyother pipework is earthed to the same system so if there is a short you don't get a shock, Also their Plugs work better than ours where the longer earth terminal Opens a little trapdoor to allow the Item to be plugged in and without that there is no way you can poke anything in any of the holes so you can't get a shock also how they keep the plug in place so item that is plugged in stays plugged In.
