Anyone remember the days when things electrical were commonly sold without a plug and you fitted your own.
When did it become commonplace to find them already included.
When did it become mandatory for them to be already fitted.
The reasons I am asking is because my generation folks often knew how to fit a plug and often it was taught in schools too.
I`m not suggesting they were always fitted properly or selected with care, especially fuse size but it was a pretty common practice.
Later generations of folks became less aware.
I would be grateful for any opinions and any date facts too.
