I may be skewed by the fact its the plug of my country; but i like the type L plug (its the no 1 in the photo) mostly because its modular: you dont need to get a specific faceplate to have a certain arrangement of plugs, switches etc… You just take the brace plate off and you can rearrange the fruits in the box to your hearts content. Eg: you pass an ethernet cable and need to put a keystone in the wall; you just buy the fruit and put it in the place of a blanking plate. What i dont like is the almost total lack of shielding for the live and neutral.

I agree. The Italian plug is compact and safe, and also modular.
Too bad we only have it in Italy
Chile says hi
Wow, really? I need to visit Chile :)
Nah, reversible polarity. I hate that.
