    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_wiring_in_North...

    An outlet is defined by the NEC as "a point in the wiring system at which current is taken to utilization equipment". [1] This definition includes receptacles, lighting, motors, etc. Ordinary switches control but do not consume electricity, and therefore are not defined as outlets in this sense.

  4. AC power plugs and sockets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_power_plugs_and_sockets

    Grounded vs ungrounded NEMA plugs. The NEMA 5-15 plug has two flat parallel blades like NEMA 1-15, and a ground (earth) pin. [46] It is rated 15 A at 125 volts. The ground pin is longer than the line and neutral blades, such that an inserted plug connects to ground before power. The ground hole is officially D-shaped, although some round holes ...

    A popular choice for the latter is the NEMA 14-50 receptacle. This type of outlet provides 240 volts and, when wired to a 50-amp circuit, can support charging at 40 amps according to North American electrical code. This translates to a power supply of up to 9.6 kilowatts, [91] offering a faster and more efficient charging experience.
