Plugs & AC Accessories: Power Connections and Adapters

Plugs, adapters and AC accessories allow reliable connections between appliances and power sources. Whether you're replacing a damaged plug, adding a fused connector or fitting an appliance lead, correct selection and safe installation are key.

What matters

Choose plugs and connectors rated for the appliance's current and voltage, and ensure they meet required safety standards. For outdoor or damp environments, use weatherproof and IP-rated components. Consider fused plugs where appropriate to provide additional circuit protection for portable appliances.

Product types

• Standard appliance plugs and detachable leads in various lengths and conductor sizes.
• Fused plugs, extension leads and multi-socket converters for flexible power distribution.
• Outdoor and industrial-grade connectors with enhanced ingress protection.

Occasional clearance items or refurbished cables can reduce costs, but always inspect for wear and confirm safety markings. When replacing plugs or leads, follow wiring diagrams and use proper tools to ensure secure connections. For high-power or permanent equipment, professional installation guarantees compliance with electrical regulations and reduces risk of damage or hazards.
