Why haven't Non-Americans uncucked themselves on this issue?

>>74192393
Britain has always been Europe's retarded little brother.

>>74192518
Ours are the safest plug in the world and are sturdy as fuck, they will fuck you up if you step on one barefoot though.

I don't get it, why doesn't everyone have one standard plug?
Why the fuck is everyone so fucking stubborn?

>>74193435

>Let's spend tens of billions to make everyone have the same outlets or maybe use a $3 adapter if you travel

Hmm.. what shall we do

>>74192518
our plug is a source of national pride. I could probably take over the EU with one in a sock

>>74192518
t. someone who has stepped on a british plug and lost his foot

Why other places don't use normal European plugs? Why you chose to be weirdos?

Italians confirmed greatest engineers

>>74194690
Third world tier.

>>74194690
We don't need that. because Japan is first world country.
using Schuko plug countries are Third world sucks.

>>74195520
A FUCKING WIRE

Let's spent 600 trillion dollars a year on useless military expenses or maybe spent 10% of that to give everyone free education and healthcare.

Hmm.. what shall we do?

EU and US have such hideous looking prongs. Ours are shapely and elegant.

>>74194297
Type A is shit though. Not grounded, shittier performance and shittier quality than 80% of other types. You only say it's best because it's in Japan.

Everyone else's plugs are flimsy and just about sit flaccidly in the socket, easy to accidentally pull out if you trip on the wire.

>>74196382
but that's not true at all

>>74193593
hahahahah

>Non-Americans
Americans are the only ones with cucked power cords though
>USA - 120 V
>AUS - 230 V
>UK - 230 V
>EU - 230 V

>>74196445
Japan too. They use the shittier, non-grounded version of the same plug that americans use.

Best plug coming through plebs

>>74196429
the EU one is clearly the sturdiest. dunno why UK has to be so edgy. but look at those weak little cuck pins on AU, also your stupid design makes you only able to put the plug in one angle and not two like ours.

I like the appearance of type K but the nation it is associated with must never be allowed to speak.

My dish washer has aussie plug, I always thought that it was a specific plug for dish washers.

>>74196508
you are all monkey-tier engineers since you use asymmetrical sockets

>>74196596
Maybe your dishwasher is an Australian model?

Pay up your fair share first and then we'll talk about healthcare.
Also it's gonna take more than 10% to work.

Your country is a fucking joke
>inb4 yours isn't better.

The only difference when it comes to mains voltage is that for a given wattage a 230V appliance will pull less current than the 120V, so you can spend a little bit less money when wiring your house. On the other hand, lower voltages are marginally safer.
Here in Brazil part of our system is 127V phase-neutral, and thus 220V phase-phase, so we can use appliances from both voltage ranges.

>>74192561
how do you have two plugs going at the same time though? the cord will get in the way

This is only one level of wiring.

I have to find go-betweens for all kinds of NEMA standards on a daily basis, plus at least three different kinds of IEC.

>>74196726
Or maybe it's a T-back, or a NEMA 15 or L6/L7. Electrical standards are strange.
