Commando Sockets Plugs

I appreciate they aren't necessarily the most cosmetically elegant or compact designs for use in the living room. But that aside would they provide a better connection?

Re: Commando Sockets Plugs
Always assumed these were 110 V with fused pins as they look designed to be robust for industrial use?
