This was some fifty years ago, or more, and things were a little more rudimentary in the home back then and electrical sockets were more like one Bakelite 15 amp socket and whatever your kitchen appliances needs had to be met from a birds nest of cables and adapters that came from them or out of the light switch which had a similar birds nest. This was no problem as the electrical needs were simple and health and safety had yet to be invented. But the reliance on wood or coal fires for heat and paraffin oil for the lighting was extensive.
