The 230V 15A connector is common on BEC hardawre over

I've been quoted \pounds 25.00 (about $40) for a single plug. Surely they
are a lot cheaper in the States.
They are--probably around $5 in single-unit quantities. I use one on my
automatic dishwasher.
It's the hospital-grade receptacles and plugs that are dear here. Aside
from an additional endorsement and a different color, I
don't know if they
differ much from the ordinary consumer grade stuff.
