	Domestic AC power plugs and sockets - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Domestic AC power plugs and sockets allow a connection between the mains electricity (household, usually single-phase, AC electrical power) and the appliances commonly used in homes.
		Plug F, known as CEE 7/4 and commonly called a "Schuko plug", is like E except that it has two earthing clips on the sides of the plug instead of a female earth contact.
		The plug is rated at 16 A. Above that, equipment must either be wired permanently to the mains or connected via another higher power connector such as the IEC 309 system.

		Another possibility would be to split this article putting the general section (stuff that isn't specifc to plug type) at "AC power plugs and sockets" and then having the actual socket types split between "general purpose AC power plugs and sockets" and "Industrial and multiphase power plugs and sockets".
		I propose the title of General purpose AC power plugs and sockets.

		a mains power plug or other type of electrical connector that mates with a socket or jack, in particular used with electrical or electronic equipment or appliances (See Domestic AC power plugs and sockets.)
		The male connector is the plug, the female the socket.
		The connector normally mounted on a cable is the plug, and the connector mounted on the equipment is the socket.

	Industrial and multiphase power plugs and sockets - Psychology Central
		Blue 2P+E sockets (generally 16 A although 32 A is becoming more common) are used near-universally by UK campsites and yacht marinas to provide domestic mains power to caravans or boats; they are also used elsewhere in Europe for the same purpose, though in some countries the local domestic plug is also widely used.
		Almost all three-phase power plugs have an earth (also known as "ground") connection, but may not have a neutral, because large appliances such as circular saws, air conditioners, etc. tend to be delta connected.
		These plugs and sockets will mate with normal plugs and sockets of the same pin arrangement but they are only waterproof when a lewden plug is used in a lewden socket and the screw ring is done up (sockets have a metal cover that screws on to waterproof them when not in use).

		For information on exactly where plug types are used, please refer to the List of countries with mains power plugs, voltages and frequencies.
		Some PC power supplies have a voltage switch, on the back of the case, for 110 V or 220 V — this should never be set incorrectly, and should always be checked if a PC has come from an unknown source or may have been tampered with.
		Where single insulated equipment is all that is available and the sockets have no earths or dubious earths it is best to at least ensure that the earths of all appliances likely to be touched at the same time are connected together (for example by plugging them into the same powerstrip with earth contacts).

	Socket - Psychology Central
		An electrical socket is a synonym of electrical outlet: an electrical device connected to a power source onto which another device can be plugged or screwed in.
		Each socket gets bound to a given port, which lets the transport layer protocol (typically UDP or TCP) identify which application to send the data to.
		A socket head screw is a screw (or bolt) with a cylindrical head containing a socket into which the often hexagonal point of the special screwdriver will fit.

	Mains : search word
		Type F [[Mains power plug and socket]] The term mains usually refers to the general purpose AC electrical power supply (as in "I've connected the appliance to the mains").
		A device at 120 V draws twice as much current as a device with the same power draw at 240 V. electric dryer requires 12.5 A at 240 V or 25 A at 120 V. The end result is that wiring must be larger, and each outlet supplies less power.
		In Japan, the electrical power supply to households is at 100 V. Eastern and northern parts of Honshu (including Tokyo) as well as Hokkaido have a frequency of 50 Hz, whereas western Honshu (including Nagoya, Osaka, and Hiroshima), Shikoku, Kyushu and Okinawa operate at 60 Hz.

		I'd like to add a bit of info on the other types of plugs found in the USA (when I have a bit more time); for 220v applications (stoves, air conditioners) there are at least four distinct types of plugs, depending on amperage.

		"Domestic AC power plugs and sockets" used to have this content in its travellers guide section (which made sense there imo) unfortuntely that page hit over 32K (again) and i thought this section was the one which could be most logically seperated out.
		i agree that this taken in isolation isn't very ensyclopedic but i also feel it is an iportant part of our info on "Domestic AC power plugs and sockets" and unfortunately keeping it in that article was probablamatic because of size issues
		Maybe it would be better placed in [Wikibooks]?

		The WattGate 330 gold-plated AC wall plug is identical to the 5266i, but goes through a special plating process that ends with thick layer of 24 karat gold.
		The only hitch in the giddyup with FI-25 plugs is a clamping screw that goes straight down the center of the entry hole for the wires, making it difficult for larger AWG wires (larger than 12 AWG) to fit the plug in stock form (they'll need to be modified).
		The VH Audio Flavor 4 power cord is designed for high current amplifiers, or components (digital OR analog) that have a dedicated circuit of at least 12 AWG wire.

		The fuse in the plug is chosen to match the current taken by the appliance, from 3 A to 13 A. BS 1363 was published in 1962 and since that time it has gradually replaced the earlier standard plugs and sockets (type D) (BS 546).
		However, this 5 ampere plug, along with its 2 A cousin, is sometimes used in the UK for centrally switched domestic lighting circuits, in order to distinguish them from normal power circuits.
		Plug F, known as CEE 7/4 and commonly called a " Schuko plug", is like E except that it has two earthing clips on the sides of the plug instead of a female earth contact.

	Domestic AC power plugs & sockets - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A power socket (electrical socket, power point, mains socket, plug-in, outlet, receptacle, or female power connector) is a connection point that delivers mains electricity when a plug is inserted into it.
		Above 10 amps, equipment must be either wired permanently to the electrical supply system with appropriate branch circuit protection or connected to the mains with an appropriate high power industrial connector.
		Voltages and frequencies may vary greatly, with different contractors installing different systems at different times.
