The color of the light emitted by the tube may be just that coming from the gas, or the light from the phosphor layer. Different phosphor-coated tubing sections may be butt ...
Three-prong plugs do not fit into the older, two-prong receptacles.

In 1969, Underwriters Laboratories mandated three-prong plugs on major appliances for safety. [7]
In 1934 the dual plug system was introduced with the socket rated at 15 A and three sizes of plug, fused 2 A and 5 A plugs and a 15 A plug. The 15 A "dual plug" incorporated a socket with narrower apertures than a standard Wylex 15 A socket, that accepted only the narrow rectangular pins of the lower-rated plugs. [ 27 ]
