    The British one. It has a switch and a fuse, and later versions have age-verification so your kids can no longer plug in your adult toys.

    In my opinion it’s Type-F

    Because:

    • It’s bi-directional
    • It’s grounded and ungrounded plugs use the same socket
    • It’s already widespread (50+ countries) source
    • Your fingers can’t touch the live wire as you’re plugging in a wire
    • It’s recessed
    • Low footprint
    • Accepts Type-C

        The type-C shown in the picture is also not the only form it has and maybe partly misleading, the plug usually is significantly smaller and flat, and power strips can feature multiple of those in less space.
