Hello again,

Is zip-cord legal in Britain?

I want to send an examination lamp to Ghana where the electrical system follows Britain.

Is the NEMA zip-cord and switch legal in the 220 V system? Rewire?

Thx, ... P.

Single insulated cable like that is "Class 0" and banned in the UK since

1975, it would fail testing.

I would.
