Yes, a 5-15P can be connected to a 5-20R (but not the other way around). If it is an L5-20R, then no. Be sure to use the correct gauge wiring when adding a 5-20R as it is for up to 20 amps; you cannot use the same gauge that is normally used for 5-15R (15 amps).

How can I rewire a lamp socket safely and effectively?

To rewire a lamp socket safely and effectively, first unplug the lamp and remove the bulb and shade. Use a screwdriver to loosen the screws holding the socket in place. Disconnect the wires from the old socket and remove it. Cut and strip the wires, then attach them to the new socket following the manufacturer's instructions. Secure the new socket in place and reassemble the lamp. Test it to ensure it is working properly before using it again.


How can I rewire a lamp socket?

To rewire a lamp socket, first unplug the lamp and remove the bulb and shade. Then, unscrew the socket from the lamp base and disconnect the old wires. Cut new wires to the same length and strip the ends. Connect the new wires to the corresponding terminals on the socket, usually labeled "hot" and "neutral." Secure the wires with screws or by twisting them together. Finally, reassemble the socket and test the lamp to ensure it is working properly.


How can I safely and effectively rewire a lamp socket?

To safely and effectively rewire a lamp socket, first unplug the lamp and remove the bulb. Then, carefully remove the socket cover and disconnect the old wires. Next, strip the insulation from the new wires and connect them to the corresponding terminals on the socket. Make sure the connections are secure and insulated. Finally, reassemble the socket, plug in the lamp, and test it to ensure it is working properly. If you are unsure or uncomfortable with this process, it is recommended to seek the help of a professional electrician.

the socket and the chipset


What size socket do you use on a 2002 Saturn vue for the oil filter housing?

It takes a very short 22mm socket. I actually bought a cheap socket and cut about 5/16" off of it, this is much cheaper than the $25 for the specialty socket.


How to remove an oxygen sensor from the exhaust manifold on a 2001 accent?

How do you rewire a headlight?

This entirely depends on why we are re-wiring. If the bulb socket and conector is damaged you buy a repair end and match up the wires from the wiring harnes. Use crimp conectors on the wires and bing bang done.


What is PAC 418?

Socket PAC418 is a 418 pin microprocessor socket designed to interface an Intel Itanium processor to the rest of the computer (usually via the motherboard). It provides both an electrical interface as well as physical support. This socket is designed to support a microprocessor module.


How do you rewire the console in the doctor who adventure games?

Using your mouse, you need to drag the wires from the current position onto the socket of the same colour (e.g. green to green, red to red). If you make a mistake, release the wire and it will retract to the original position. If you make a mistake with the wire positioning, click and drag it out of the socket and it will retract.

What are the functions of a CPU slot?

CPU slot(s) and/or socket(s)The type of CPU slot or socket determines which processors the motherboard can use. The most popular CPU connectors are Socket 370 (late-model Intel Pentium III and Celeron processors), Socket A (AMD Athlon and Duron), Socket 478 (current Celeron and Pentium 4), Socket 423 (old-style Pentium 4), Slot 1 (old-style Pentium II/III and Celeron), Slot A (older-style Athlon), and the obsolete Socket 7 (Intel Pentium and AMD K6-* processors). Some motherboards have two or more CPU connectors, allowing them to support multiple processors. A few motherboards have both Slot 1 and Socket 370 connectors, allowing them to support either type of CPU (but not both at once).There are three versions of Socket 370, which differ in pinouts and which processors they support. Early Socket 370/PPGA motherboards support only older Mendocino-core Celeron processors. Later Socket 370/FC-PGA motherboards support Coppermine-core Pentium III FC-PGA processors and Coppermine128-core Celeron FC-PGA processors. The final Socket 370 motherboards, which Intel refers to as "Universal" models, support any Socket 370 processor, including Tualatin-core Pentium III and Celeron processors. Although Socket 370 is now obsolescent, tens of millions of Socket 370 systems remain in use. When you upgrade such a system it is important to check the documentation to determine which Socket 370 variant that system uses.
