Why 13 Amps?

I didn't actually read to the end, was he charged?

I'm not positive.

Maybe because of the rubber cosh they decided it was an isolated incident.

These jokes are shocking. I'm resisting the urge to pull the plug on this thread. Keep it up and I'll blow a fuse. Jeez, I'm getting amped over this!

I suppose they wanted to keep the public insulated from the whole thing.

Ohm my, this is a revolting current in this conversation and it should be rectified immediately. Such matters should stay grounded in fact and not arc too far out of bounds.

That's quite enough. We've all had ample.

I just wish that north america had adopted a sensible plug/socket design like the UK. Having just built a house I have been quite horrified at how flimsy and tacky the electrical stuff is. On the other hand, I wish the UK would adopt the decidedly more civilised plumbing standards...
