I have a plunker here
https://plnkr.co/edit/EjS1tsvsdmCUTf7IAebF?p=preview
I’m trying to use ‘use’ to display a svg that comes from an external url.
If I use the url in a browser
http://www.ttmt.org.uk/sprite.svg#rectangle
I don’t see the svg but if I inspect the page I can at least see the svg structure.
On the plunker I can’t get the svg to display.
The current HTTP header is “text/xml”

If you are trying to use SVG like
<img src="image.svg">or as a CSS background-image, and the file is linked to correctly and everything seems right, but the browser isn’t displaying it, it might be because your server is serving it with an incorrect content-type.
Another thing to consider

xlink:href
Deprecated since SVG 2
