[QUOTE="revor, post: 556785, member: 23254"] Yes I agree which is why I was querying it. I bought the charger on line from a British company with made in Britain prominent on its website although did not specifically say the charger was. I genuinely did believe I was buying made in Britain. So was surprised that the cable and probably the charger itself was made in China and whilst a few Chinese manufacturers are listed by BASEC, this one isn't. I recall that probably about 12/15 years ago the market was flooded with cheap cable from China with CSA being below specification and considerable amount was used without knowing where it ended up. Don't know whether there were any resulting failure incidents arising. I am keen to understand how non BASEC approved cable is getting into our system and whether it is controlled or not. Maybe it isn't. [/QUOTE]
