Great Britain Wiring ....

I got to England after a long 15-hour trip ...

On my arrival I immediately went to a Electric shop to buy British Power
Cord.

Those are relatively cheap about 2 pounds something each, but I needed 12 of
those for my equipment.

The lad other there was very kind, he told me that I could make my own cord
from my American Power cord

using a socket that only cost half a pound. Here how it goes in England:

Green or Yellow is grown
Blue or Blank is neutral
Brown or Red is live

The process is pretty simple but quite time consumming: with a sharp knife
to strip the wires, a flat screw driver
and a Philips screw driver I made a plug every 10 minutes)

I also bought surge protectors at the store.  They are not cheap out there
(about 8 pounds for a 4-plugs surge protector
and 12 pounds for 6-plugs). 

Basically my total cost of conversion was: 6 pounds for the plugs + 48
pounds for the surge protectors (less than $100) ...
