2. Fuse (electrical) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuse_(electrical)

   While glass fuses have the advantage of a fuse element visible for inspection purposes, they have a low breaking capacity (interrupting rating), which generally restricts them to applications of 15 A or less at 250 V AC. Ceramic fuses have the advantage of a higher breaking capacity, facilitating their use in circuits with higher current and ...

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

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

   Plugs fitted with BS 546 fuses have been optional since the original BS 546:1934 with maximum fuse ratings of 2 A in the 2 A plug, and 5 A in the 5 A, 15 A and 30 A plugs. In practice most BS 546 plugs are unfused with fused versions being unusual and expensive. The 15 ampere (A) sockets were generally given a dedicated 15 A circuit. Multiple 5 ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_board

   A distribution board (also known as panelboard, circuit breaker panel, breaker panel, electric panel, fuse box or DB box) is a component of an electricity supply system that divides an electrical power feed into subsidiary circuits while providing a protective fuse or circuit breaker for each circuit in a common enclosure.

5. NEMA connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEMA_connector

   All NEMA 6 devices are three-wire grounding devices (hot-hot-ground) used for 208 and 240 V circuits and rated for 250 V maximum, with the 6-15, 6-20 and 6-30 being grounding versions of the 2-15, 2-20 and 2-30, respectively. The 6-15 resembles the 5-15, but with collinear horizontal pins, spaced 23 ⁄ 32 in (18.3 mm) center-to-center. The 20 ...

   For example, NM 14-2 cable contains three conductors (two plus one ground) at 14 gauge, a size typically used for circuits protected at 15 amperes. Circuits with larger currents (such as for electric furnaces, water heaters, air conditioners, or sub-mains to additional circuit panels) will have larger conductors.
