1. A plug for electrical equipment comprising a housing and a plurality of projections extending from the housing for receipt by a socket and for electrical connection therewith, wherein first and second projections are longer than a third projection, the projections being arranged in a triangular arrangement, wherein the projections are arranged to facilitate disengagement of the plug from a socket, wherein the plug is arranged to mate with the socket, but being capable of intentionally overcoming the mating so as to avoid damage to the plug and/or socket in the event of a sufficient pulling force applied to the plug, and wherein the plug further comprises a magnet or ferrous portion which is arranged to provide a magnetic retaining force between the plug and the socket.
