NEMA 1-15 Ungrounded (Type A) Plug
The NEMA 1-15 ungrounded (Type A) plug is a type of electrical plug used mainly in North America and Central America. It is a two-pronged plug that does not provide a grounded connection for electrical appliances and devices.
The NEMA 1-15 plug has two flat prongs that are parallel to each other, with one prong slightly wider than the other. The wider prong is the "neutral" wire, while the narrower prong is the "hot" wire. The plug is designed to fit into a standard NEMA 1-15R receptacle, which can be found in most homes and businesses in the United States and Canada.
The NEMA 1-15 plug is rated for 125 volts and 15 amps, which means it can handle a maximum power load of 1875 watts. It is commonly used for small electronic devices such as cell phone chargers, laptop power adapters, and small appliances like toasters and blenders that do not require a grounded connection for safety. However, it is important to note that some modern electronic devices may require a grounded connection even if they come with a NEMA 1-15 plug, so it is important to check the device's specifications before use.
