Spanish translation:enchufe para afeitadoras con fusible
Explanation:
Albert, por lo que parece es simplemente un 'formato' de enchufe popular en Inglaterra.

This plug is what became the UK standard shaver plug and is similar but slightly larger than the Europlug. British **shaver sockets** and adaptors tend to be sized to accept this, Europlugs and two pin American and Australian plugs.

Y vienen con fusible 'incorporado'. En este vínculo hay una foto del enchufe en cuestión:

No sé si el nombre viene de que se lo usaba (o usa) para conectar una afeitadora eléctrica, pero al menos encontré una referencia de 'Phillips' donde está traducido de esa manera:

The mains plug of the appliance meets the latest European standards. The plug is safe, although the standard UK **shaver socket** holes may be slightly too wide for the pins of the
plug.// El suministro de corriente a enchufes de espejos o armarios situados sobre lavabos o a **enchufes para afeitadoras** en los cuartos de baño,puede cortarse al apagar la luz.
