 The two-pole and earthing-pin socket is a British Standard (BS 546) for three pin AC power plugs and sockets. Originally standard published in April 1934, updated by a 1950 edition which is still current, with eight amendments up to 1999. Although BS 546 plugs and sockets are still permitted in the U.K. and are used for special purposes such as supply to more power demanding electrical equipment, hence 15A rating, usually on a separate circuit, as opposed to standard ring mains plug which is the British three flat-pin type that has a maximum 13A rating. 

BS 546 "Two-pole and earthing-pin plug, socket-outlet for AC (50-60 Hz) circuits up to 250V" is also the precursor of current Indian and South African plug standards. This plug is also used in Singapore and Hong Kong, and another dozen other nations for general or various specialist applications.
