First, before you do anything else... Find and verify the colours for Live, Neutral and Earth for both nation's standards. (Respectively Brown, Blue and Green/Yellow-striped in the UK). (I don't know the Australian colours.)
Then remove the Australian plug - presumably there is an earth contact of come sort, trim the wires to the correct length and fit the UK plug.
NOW VERIFY CORRECT CONNECTIONS BEFORE PLUGGING IT INTO THE MAINS!

How can you wire a 110V plug outlet on a generator to stop the plug from melting?
If the plug is melting it is because of a heat build up caused by loose connections. If the plug is not a moulded plug check that the screws are tight. If it is not that, then the plug blades are not tight enough in the receptacle. Change out the receptacle on the generator. Draw a picture of the receptacle and mark where each wire goes. The best way of doing is is when you have the new receptacle take one wire off of the old receptacle and put it in the same position on the new receptacle. Having tight blade connections will prevent the plug overheating and melting.
