The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) publishes a web microsite World Plugs [1] which provides the main source for this page, except where other sources are indicated. World Plugs includes some history, a description of plug types, and a list of countries giving the type(s) used and the mains voltage and frequency.
IEC 60906-1-plug. IEC 60906-1 (IEC designation "Type N") [1] is an international standard designed "to provide a standard for a safe, compact and practical 16 A 250 V AC system of plugs and socket-outlets that could be accepted by many countries as their national standard, even if not in the near future."
Brazil adopted the "NBR 14136" standard, based on IEC 60906-1. South Africa implemented the "SANS 164-5" that also relies on 60906-1, although types D and M are still supported. Both countries are almost a decade with full enforcement of the new standards.
In addition to the obvious physical connector differences (plugs and sockets), AC electric power can be delivered at differing voltage and frequency. Canada, Mexico and the United States all use a 100–127 volt, 60 hertz electrical system, (as do some other central and South American countries), which shares the same physical connectors.
The maximum voltage allowed by the standard is 1000 V DC or AC; the maximum current, 800 A; and the maximum frequency, 500 Hz. The ambient temperature range is −25 °C to 40 °C. [3] There is a range of plugs and sockets of different sizes with differing numbers of pins, depending on the current supplied and number of phases accommodated.
Unique to Switzerland is a three-phase power socket compatible with single-phase plugs: [55] The type 15 plug has three round pins, of the same dimensions as type 12, plus two smaller flat rectangular pins for two additional power phases. The type 15 socket is recessed, and has five openings (three round and two flat rectangular).
