It depends upon what type of plug that you are talking about. There are many configurations of plugs. The one that you are probably referring to is a 2 pole 3 wire grounding plug. To correctly identify the "phase" pin a voltage and amperage must be stated. It will fall under one of three designations L5, L6 or L7.
By Convenstion the right side pin is supposed to be phase or hot pin. Left side pin is neutral. Top side pin, which is slightly larger and bit longer is for grounding. This convention is applicable in India.
One pin for phase other pin for neutral and third one is for earth/ground wire. In India the right pin is for phase, left pin is for neutral and pin on top side is for ground wire. This third top side pin is slightly bigger and longer compared to phase and neutral pins.
Both use the same kind of 3 pin plug.
No, you should not plug a single-phase 120V plug into a 3-phase outlet as the voltage and phase configurations do not match. This can cause damage to your equipment or pose a safety hazard. It is important to match the voltage and phase requirements of your equipment with the outlet you are using.
A 3 pin plug has a clamp on it to stop the wires from being ripped out of the plug when people use the wire to remove a plug from the wall instead of gripping the plug and removing it the proper way.
3 pin plug
Need to know voltage and type of plug to answer this question.
To clean a 3-pin plug, first unplug it from the socket. Use a dry cloth or a small brush to remove dirt and dust from the pins. Avoid using water or liquid cleaners, as this can cause damage to the plug.
orange is ground, power is red/white Ground is Plug 3, Pin 8 Keyed Power is Plug 3 Pin 4 Battery Power is Plug 3 pin 7
On a UK three pin plug the two smaller prongs are Live (brown) and Neutral (blue). The Larger pin is for the Earth wire. This can prevent you getting an electric shock
Same as the UK 3 pin : )
Yes, you can.
Pin 1 = ground, Pin 2 = hot/plus, Pin 3 = cold/minus
