2. American wire gauge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_wire_gauge

   American Wire Gauge ( AWG) is a logarithmic stepped standardized wire gauge system used since 1857, predominantly in North America, for the diameters of round, solid, nonferrous, electrically conducting wire. Dimensions of the wires are given in ASTM standard B 258. [ 1] The cross-sectional area of each gauge is an important factor for ...

3. Ampacity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampacity

   For example, the United States National Electrical Code, Table 310.15(B)(16), specifies that up to three 8 AWG copper wires having a common insulating material (THWN) in a raceway, cable, or direct burial has an ampacity of 50 A when the ambient air is 30 °C, the conductor surface temperature allowed to be 75 °C. A single insulated conductor ...

   e. Electrical wiring in North America follows the regulations and standards applicable at the installation location. It is also designed to provide proper function, and is also influenced by history and traditions of the location installation. The US National Electrical Code is applicable to many areas in the US where state, county or local ...

5. AC power plugs and sockets - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_power_plugs_and_sockets

   e. AC power plugs and sockets connect devices to mains electricity to supply them with electrical power. A plug is the connector attached to an electrically-operated device, often via a cable. A socket (also known as a receptacle or outlet) is fixed in place, often on the internal walls of buildings, and is connected to an AC electrical circuit.

   Pilot Pin. (optional) last-make, first-break to control arcing. IEC 60309 (formerly IEC 309 and CEE 17, also published by CENELEC as EN 60309) is a series of international standards from the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) for "plugs, socket-outlets and couplers for industrial purposes".

7. NEMA connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEMA_connector

   NEMA connectors are power plugs and sockets used for AC mains electricity in North America and other countries that use the standards set by the US National Electrical Manufacturers Association. NEMA wiring devices are made in current ratings from 15 to 60 amperes (A), with voltage ratings from 125 to 600 volts (V).
