SANS 164-4 covers a 16A - 250V dedicated system, based on SANS 164-1. The plugs and matching socket are meant for special local networks. The first version of the standard, that is unique to South Africa, was published in 2006.

10Socket and plug, characterized by an earth slot and pin that have a flat portion. Three variants exist. They differ with respect to the rotational position of the flat portion, i.e. 0º (red), +53º (blue) and -53º (black). Color coding is an integral requirement of the standard.
11, 12The red variant is among others used for electronic equipment. Red sockets are connected to a safe, local network, independent of standard power supply. Red sockets can also be used when a clean earth wiring system is necessary. {PC}
13, 14The blue variant is usually connected to a local network that offers an uninterrupted power supply. {BJ} Note that also available are blue sockets with a fully round earth pin hole (accessible for SANS 164-1 plugs).
