Euro Socket on Jet wash

[sgoss6]

I have been sold a jet was from an English company that when delivered has a plug on it like the ones used in Europe. Is it right that they can sell these in the UK? Also can I just use an adaptor, or can i cut the plug off and fit a UK 3 pin plug.

Whats its voltage? Do you have a photograph of the plug?

I think it's "Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 1994" which means they have to supply equipment with British type plug?

May also be "The Plugs and Sockets etc. (Safety) Regulations 1994" which I think is part of the same.

I think they can provide an adaptor but you should be able to plug it in without doing any wiring.

It may be limited to Domestic not sure.

German Schuko sockets are not allowed in UK, however the plugs are however I can't see how anyone can provide items with those plugs fitted in UK.

Adaptors

are available.

A Jet Wash? Is this an industrial thing? Does the plug look like this?

Exactly what I was thinking. It could be 110v

Then it would be yellow.

Then it would be yellow.

The plug looks like this. I have spoken to the supplier and they say there is an adaptor in the box, so I guess i will have to use the adaptor. Thanks all for the replys.

Cut the plug on and put a UK plug on. Most adaptors are s**te
