Answer 1

Answer: The material of the outside casing of a plug is not given in the question.

To determine which plug is correctly wired, we need to look for the wiring configuration that follows the standard color coding used in the UK. According to the question, the colors used for the wires are brown (live), green and yellow (earth), and blue (neutral).

Looking at the options, we can see that plug A has the correct wiring configuration, where the brown wire is connected to the fuse (F), the green and yellow wire is connected to the top pin (E), and the blue wire is connected to the left pin (N). Plug B has the brown and blue wires swapped, Plug C has the green and yellow and blue wires swapped, and Plug D has the brown and green and yellow wires swapped.

Therefore, the plug that is correctly wired is Plug A.
