If the supplied mains plug is not suitable for your mains socket-outlet, remove its fuse (if possible) and then cut the plug off the lead. Destroy the severed plug immediately to avoid the shock hazard that would exist if this were to be plugged into a mains socket.
Fit an appropriate mains plug on the lead. If this plug contains a fuse, it should be as described above. If you are using a non-fused plug, an external fuse must not exceed 5A.
