M. D. said:pretty neat,...do all attachment plugs have a standard thickness to the blades?? and,.. are they the same as that which is doing the testing ? or are receptacles designed to accept a varying degree in the thickness of the blades for attachment plugs??

For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened
