That is a different plug. The moulded plug to me has not been damaged from the fuse. Was the fuse cover thermally damaged.Clearly where the fuse is. If the plug is hidden?

Just making a point. A 15A fuseless plug without a fuse, as opposed to 13A with a fuse, is more manly being far less likely to overheat. And no nuisance fuse blowing or inaccessible fuses.That is a different plug. The moulded plug to me has not been damaged from the fuse.
Yes but that moulded plug doesn't appear to be damaged because of the fuse so how would a solid link make any difference. You seem to be drifting from ruptured fuses to thermally damaged plugs which a solid link would not resolve.Just making a point.

Lets close this thread now please ??Yes but that moulded plug doesn't appear to be damaged because of the fuse so how would a solid link make any difference. You seem to be drifting from ruptured fuses to thermally damaged plugs which a solid link would not resolve.
That may be the case, but the points are:Yes but that moulded plug doesn't appear to be damaged because of the fuse so how would a solid link make any difference. You seem to be drifting from ruptured fuses to thermally damaged plugs which a solid link would not resolve.
Well it is the case. No one is denying a 15A plug can take more current.That may be the case, but the points are:
1) a 15A plug can take more current;
2) no fuse avoids a hot spot.
Just tell the self centred thought police to keep away. If I do not like a thread I do not go on telling the mod to close it down. I am not that stupid or self centred like that.Can we keep this friendly or I will close it.

See what you did there. Thread closed.Just tell the self centred thought police to keep away. If I do not like a thread I do not go on telling the mod to close it down. I am not that stupid or self centred like that.
