3 Pin Flex Connector

[CAWORK]

Hello Everybody'

Yesterday, I purchased a 3 pin flex connector (for £3) from a High Street retailer selling electrical appliances.

I have wondered how long this connector might have been stuck in the shop for?, since the Voltage on it is 250v as compared to the now nominal 230v (although I'm aware there are permitted tolerances).

K (within a square) 2121 250V 10A BS 5733.

It is held together by screws but has hexagon nut on the bottom.

(Personally I would have preferred a Duraplug but as a person who relies on public transport with restricted services it is not so easy now to get to places that I know to sell them, although I am sure this will be fine for what I intend to use it for).

Regards

250V is more than 230 so it will be alright. Anyway, your voltage might sometimes reach 250V.
10A @ 250V is 9.2A @ 230V - coincidentally 2120W (2121) ?

I would think the K is the manufacturer's logo.

Other than that it is just a connector, not sure what you are worried about.

Looks like a fairly standard domino connector

It'll be fine, there isn't a Use By date on stuff like that. Its obviously been stored indoors, no sign of any cracking of the plastic & the brass will last pretty much forever. Crack on...
