印度和南非标插头按BS 546 India/SABS 164-1 South Africa制造标准执行, 标准是在英国标准546(1962年的英国BS 1363插头标准)的基础上变化而来。而BS 546标准也用于南部非洲部分地区(如加纳、肯尼亚、尼日利亚),中东(科威特、卡塔尔),尼泊尔和亚洲部分地区和远东部分地区。插脚为三个圆柱,接地比零火两级的直径大,插头电气参数为15A/250VAC。
注:印度标插头并不是强制接受英国标准协会的认证,如果出口设备到印度要详细咨询当地的电源标准。
India and South Africa have standardized on a plug which was originally defined in British Standard 546 (the standard in the United Kingdom before 1962, when the United Kingdom replaced it with BS 1363). The BS 546 standard is also used in parts of Southern Africa (i.e., Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria), the Middle East (i.e., Kuwait, Qatar), Nepal and parts of Asia and the Far East that were electrified by the British.
Our cords are manufactured to our specifications in the U.K. It meets British standards, but carries no approvals. The plug is rated at 15A/250VAC. No approvals are required in the countries where it is used.
Note: India now requires BSI approvals. Currently not all Indian plugs carry this approval, therefore, it is important to contact India before exporting cords without this approval.
