This is a travel protector for T12 plugs, also known as Swiss 3-pin plug, SEV 1011 plug, or Type-J plug. 
If you have bent or broken the pins of your plugs during travel or transport, or if you simply want to prevent this from happening, this is the thing for you.

This is a remix of the excellent Europlug protection cap by MgrUwaga.

The protector is held in place by introducing friction through slightly curved channels for the L and N pins. It's symmetric in all directions so it doesn't matter which way you attach it.

 

Printing

Print the model in the original orientation. The STL is pre-rotated into the right orientation for printing.

Recommended Settings

  • Material: PETG, PLA, etc. (tested with PETG)
  • Extrusion width: 0.4mm or 0.45mm
  • Layer height: 0.2mm
  • Infill: 20% Gyroid
  • Perimeters: 3 or 4
  • Supports: No

The original designer recommends adding a modifier to increase the infill between the pin holes. However, with 3 perimeters and 20% infill I found that not necessary.

Bonus

Also included is a modified version of MgrUwaga's Europlug protector in STEP and STL with slight changes to cosmetically align it with my T12 plug remix. It is functionally identical to MgrUwaga's original.
