Plugs & Receptacles

Essential components of electrical systems, plugs and receptacles connect power to a multitude of devices and appliances. They are designed to fulfill the standard wiring requirements, which means they offer a secure and efficient connection. Their mechanism of operation is quite simple. A plug is inserted into a receptacle, and an electrical circuit is completed, allowing electricity to flow in a neat and orderly manner to the connected device. The two components, however, are both engineered specifically to handle certain amperage levels. Also, the receptacles are designed to accept plugs in a certain way, which helps ensure compatibility across different applications.

Electrical receptacles and plugs have a scope spanning from basic, domestic devices to complex, industrial assemblies. They serve to consistently connect and disconnect electrical circuits while keeping the user safe from moisture, dust, and inopportune contact with live parts. Increasingly, modern receptacles have features to improve electrical connection reliability and to keep users safe from tampering and accidental contact with live parts. Some are also built to withstand the damaging effects of environmental exposure.
