When I downloaded WD6, it was because it was of use “at work” – OTOH, since I 
progressed “beyond work” (i.e. I retired – 6 yrs ago!), the need for having an 
up-to-date version has become of “less relevance” to me in the UK😊.

Hello all, unfortunately I'm not too familiar with U.S. standards. I am looking 
for the equivalent information of BS 1363-1 that would describe the standard 
U.S. mains plug and socket dimensions, plug pin lengths, spacings etc. I nice 
2D dimensioned drawing would be ideal.

The reason is we are needing to make sure some third party sourced plug top 
'wall wart' power supply units intended for use in the U.S. will be correct 
mechanically regards the plug & pins.

Thanks for any help, much appreciated.
