NEMA 5-15P to 5-15R Power Cords FAQ

What is the difference between 5-15R and 5-15P?

The NEMA 5-15R is the standard 15-ampere electric receptacle (outlet) found in the United States and Canada. The NEMA 5-15P is a three-wire, two-blade plug with a ground pin, used to connect electrical devices to the 5-15R outlet. It is rated for 125V and up to 15A, making it suitable for common household appliances and electronics.

Can a NEMA 5-15P handle 20 amps?

No, a NEMA 5-15P plug is rated for a maximum of 15A. If you have a 20A circuit, you should use a NEMA 5-20R receptacle instead of a 5-15R. However, it is generally acceptable to use 15A receptacles on a 20A circuit, as long as it is not the only receptacle on that circuit.

Is 5-15P a regular outlet?

Yes, the NEMA 5-15P is the standard household plug used for connecting small appliances like TVs, microwaves, and hairdryers to a wall outlet. It is compatible with the NEMA 5-20R T-Slot outlet commonly found in new home installations.

Is it OK to use a 15A outlet on a 20A circuit?

Most 15A outlets can be used on 20A circuits, as long as they are not the only outlet on that circuit. If there is just a single outlet on a 20A circuit, you must use a 20A outlet. Additionally, ensure that the wire gauge is suitable for the circuit amperage (e.g., 12 AWG for 20A).

Can you plug a 5-15P into a 5-20R?

Yes, both NEMA 5-15P and NEMA 5-20P plugs can be plugged into a NEMA 5-20R T-Slot receptacle, making it a versatile option. However, only a 5-15P plug will fit into a 5-15R receptacle.

What is 5-15P configuration?

The NEMA 5-15P is a three-wire, two-blade connector with a ground pin, capable of delivering 15A at 125V of both AC and DC power. It is commonly used for household appliances, office equipment, and other electronics.

What is a 5-15R plug?

The NEMA 5-15R is a 3-wire grounded receptacle (outlet) with forced polarity, rated up to 125VAC and 15A. It is designed to accept either the NEMA 1-15P or NEMA 5-15P plugs, making it the standard household outlet for connecting small appliances and electronics.
