2. AC power plugs and sockets: British and related types

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_power_plugs_and_sockets:...

   BS 546, Two-pole and earthing-pin plugs, socket-outlets and socket-outlet adaptors for AC (50–60 Hz) circuits up to 250 V is an older British Standard for three-pin AC power plugs and sockets: four sizes with current capacities from 2 A to 30 A. Originally published in April 1934, it was updated by a 1950 edition which is still current, [1 ...

3. AS/NZS 3112 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AS/NZS_3112

   The pins are arranged at 120° angles around a common midpoint, with the active and neutral centred 7.92 mm (5 ⁄ 16 in) from the midpoint, and the earth pin centred 10.31 mm (3 ⁄ 8 in) away. [15] A standard socket-outlet provides a nominal RMS voltage of 230 volts [2] at a maximum of 10 amps and always includes an earth connection ...

4. Tube socket - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tube_socket

   The B7G (or "small-button" or "heptal") seven-pin miniature tubes are smaller than Noval, with seven pins arranged at 45-degree spacing in a 9.53 mm (3/8th inch) diameter arc, the "missing" pin position being used to position the tube in its socket (unlike octal, loctal and rimlock sockets). Examples include the 6AQ5/EL90 and 6BE6/EK90.

5. Schuko - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schuko

   Schuko sockets can accept two-pin unearthed Europlug (CEE 7/16) and CEE 7/17. Less safely, Schuko plugs can be inserted into many two-pin unearthed CEE 7/1 sockets and into some sockets with a different form of earth connection that will not mate with the earth contacts on the Schuko plug (e.g., some variants of the Danish socket).

6. Electrical connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_connector

   The connection may be removable (as for portable equipment), require a tool for assembly and removal, or serve as a permanent electrical joint between two points. [2] An adapter can be used to join dissimilar connectors. Most electrical connectors have a gender – i.e. the male component, called a plug, connects to the female component, or socket.

7. CPU socket - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPU_socket

   Common sockets include pin grid array (PGA) or land grid array (LGA). These designs apply a compression force once either a handle (PGA type) or a surface plate (LGA type) is put into place. This provides superior mechanical retention while avoiding the risk of bending pins when inserting the chip into the socket.

8. Europlug - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europlug

   Example of a Europlug. The Europlug is a flat, non-rewirable two-pole, round-pin domestic AC power plug, rated for voltages up to 250 V and currents up to 2.5 A. [1] It is a compromise design intended to connect low-power Class II appliances safely to the many different forms of round-pin domestic power socket used across Europe.

9. Bi-pin lamp base - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bi-pin_lamp_base

   The suffix after the G indicates the pin spread; the G dates to the use of Glass for the original bulbs. GU usually also indicates that the lamp provides a mechanism for physical support by the luminaire: in some cases, each pin has a short section of larger diameter at the end (sometimes described as a "peg" rather than a "pin" [2]); the socket allows the bulb to lock into place by twisting ...
