The corresponding notch in the female connector body is 1.8 ± 0.1 mm (0.071 ± 0.004 in) wide and ends at a radius of 6.2 ± 0.1 mm (0.244 ± 0.004 in) from the connector centre. With the angles measured clockwise looking at the female connector (counter-clockwise looking at the male), the various key positions indicate:
The addition is a 3 ⁄ 16-inch (4.8 mm) diameter round or U-shaped ground pin, 1 ⁄ 8 in (3.2 mm) longer than the power blades (so the device is grounded before the power is connected) and located from them by 1 ⁄ 4 in (6.4 mm) edge-to-edge or 15 ⁄ 32 in (11.9 mm) center-to-center.
[1] Hot is any line or neutral conductor (wire or otherwise) connected with an electrical system that has electric potential relative to electrical ground or line to neutral. Ground is a safety conductor with a low impedance path to earth. It is often called the "ground wire," or safety ground. It is either bare or has green insulation. [1]
A receptacle tester being used to check for some types of improper wiring of an outlet. For this particular tester, proper wiring is indicated by the two yellow lights. The outlet tester checks that each contact in the outlet appears to be connected to the correct wire in the building's electrical wiring. It can identify several common wiring ...
Clock diagram for the regular (>50 V) connector series, viewed looking in to the socket end. The extra-low voltage connector also supports keying, although in this case the angle is the position of the minor key, assuming the major key is at the 6h position (180°).
Diagram of a possible configuration of ring final circuit. Consumer unit is at bottom left. The ring starts at the consumer unit (also known as fuse box, distribution board, or breaker box), visits each socket in turn, and then returns to the consumer unit. The ring is fed from a fuse or circuit breaker in the consumer unit.
IEC metric screw sized connectors is a family of electrical connectors defined by IEC that are named according to their ISO metric screw thread, namely M5, M8 and M12. [1] The number gives their outer screw thread diameter in millimeters as with the identically named screws.
The connectors on the cord are connected pin for pin, (pin 1 to pin 1, etc.). Pins on male connectors are numbered (from right to left, viewed from outside of the connector, with the five pins upwards, and facing them): 1–4–2–5–3. Holes on female connectors are also numbered 1-4-2-5-3, but from left to right (facing the holes).
