I’ve never seen any in China that are different to the ones in Australia. Are these used or standards?

In China they have a US/EU/AUS Mix socket. Probably because of all the different products for different markets produced there

The Chinese plugs that look similar to Australia plugs are different in at least two ways

  • Chinese pins are thinner which means they don't seat well in Australia

  • Australian plugs must have partially insulated pins
