I found this at a car boot last week, I think it could have been an MK creation. Anybody care to guess at the year and why dont they still make something similiar.
Odd socket
- Thread starter Sureitsoff?
- Start date
I've got one of them (stored) in my garage. It comes with a surface back box which can be fitted over a standard single knockout box.
I don't think it's MK, perhaps something like AEI or Nettle. Will have a look some time. (Hang on, can't you look on yours?)

Found it, no maker's name.
The fuse for the 2 amp sockets is missing on mine. Have a look on yours, there may be a name on it.
Could be MEM.
I would estimate it to be around mid 60s.

Nettle were a very big manufacturer of electrical wiring devices in the Sixties, whatever happened to them? - Did they go bust or similar?
Nettle were bought up by Delta, along with MEM and several others.

Quite a variety of combination sockets like this were made in the 1950's/60's era, when BS1363 and BS546 plugs were still both in widespread use. And, of course, there were the various adapters too, with all sorts of different combinations of 2-pin and 3-pin outlets.
looks like MEM to me.
