I have discovered recently, that they don't sell Europlug sockets in the local shops, preferring to offer many kinds of power sockets with grounding (much bigger in size).
To be clear, I needed a socket for [Europlug](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europlug) (CEE 7/16 Alternative II plug, CEE 7/16 plug). And it should be not wider than a power supply with integrated power plug (see it on a picture below).
So I have designed it around the parts sourced from the grounded socket I had at the moment (Borsan BR1515). Later I found that the design works well also with the vitamins taken from another grounded socket: Lezard 715-0600-606 (while the contacts are smaller and are suited not so tough in printed housing).
While the primary goal of the Europlug Socket is to fit europlugs, I also adapted the design to fit other kinds of plain power plugs I had (see on the title picture).
Prior to printing it, make sure that you have some incombustible (or flame-resistant) plastic, and read the War
