Mini-split air conditioners give the option of whole-home air conditioning, minus the duct work. In some cases, this may not be a viable option if the dryer vent diameter is too small to accommodate the hose. In most cases, portable air conditioners will come with these kinds of vents, so there is no need to worry. This is a similar level of protection to that seen for portable appliances in other countries, but less than the protection offered by the BS 1363 fused plug. All adaptors (except for those accepting not more than two BS 1363 plugs) require to be fused. By the time the 1911 GEC Catalogue was published two-pin plugs and sockets were being offered with specifications in amps, but still with no indication as to pin size or spacing. In this arrangement a cable connected to a fuse, or circuit breaker, in the distribution board was wired in sequence to a number of sockets before being terminated back at the distribution board, thus forming a ring final circuit. Multiple 5 A sockets might be on a 15 A circuit, or each on a dedicated 5 A circuit. If power consumption is a problem a small unit in a small space might be a good idea.
