I'm looking to completely re-wire my lighting set up and need some male & female iec plugs (that I can re-wire myself). I've tried the search function and google and found a few. Just wondering if you lot know where's best & best Value for money.

So is a Bulgin connector the same as an IEC connector?

Being a pedant, this is not strictly true ;)

as Bulgin Limited do manufacture a range of IEC connectors

However, I accept the 8-way low current connectors pictured below are of course commonly referred to as "Bulgins" within the mobile disco industry

Should we perhaps start a pedants forum? There seem to be plenty of us from time to time. ;) :D

Justin, sometimes people use a Bulgin to IEC rig to run multiple effects from a single cable wiring system. If you want a bit of advice, PM or call. :)
