old mains plugs
Yes I'm thinking araldite at the moment. The two halves just clamp the pins
with the attacment for each wire all held together by a nut and bolt in the
middle, there are little slots where the wires run out to the top, ie no way
to secure the outer of the flex it is connected to.

No more dangerous than modern mains connectors in most of the world.
Is it a plug or a socket you need?
How about fixing it with epoxy putty?
