Abstract
A temperature control arrangement for an electrical appliance comprises means for the attachment of the arrangement to the appliance and for the connection of the arrangement to an electricity supply whereby the appliance is supplied with electricity via the arrangement. A thermostat arrangement is provided in the arrangement and comprises a switch operable by a heat sensitive actuator. Heat transfer means are also provided whereby when the arrangement is connected to said appliance transfer of heat can take place from the appliance to the actuator so that, in use, on attainment of a predetermined temperature the actuator acts to operate the switch and affect the supply of electricity received by the appliance.
