BS-F8 Figure of 8 plug with fused British standard plug

Es ist ein Zubehörteil zu einem Netzadapter AC - DC, der dem akkubetriebenen Werkzeug Strom liefert, wenn mal der Akku leer ist oder einfach mehr Power gefordert wird. BS sollte British Standard sein und F8 dann wohl die 8 Ampere Sicherung. Aber was ist "Figure of 8"?
