it depends on what type of socket in question, if its domestic then all plug sockets are for general use hoover telly etc if they are commercial then certain sockets could have a dedicated use for example computers, you wouldn't use a hoover on these incase it tripped out and all unsaved data would be lost, that's only reason you wouldn't use them, the supply and breaker rating is exactly the same, so to summarise no they don't but always check to see what else is running off that supply just to be sure.

What is the voltage of electricity supplied to houses in South Africa?

The standard voltage supplied to residential properties in South Africa is 230 volt single phase at 50 cycles per second (50 Hz). In some cases (by application) it is possible to get a 380 volt three phase power connected to the house.Outlet receptacles (sockets) and plugsThere are two official South African socket and plug standards: type M and type N. Type M is ubiquitous, whereas type N is not so common. Appliances with a type C plug are very commonly found and used with a plug adapter in order to fit type M sockets. Type N sockets are compatible with C plugs. Besides type M and N (and C), the older type D sockets can also be found.For more information see the Related Link "Electricity around the world" shown below.


Can you remove legendary gems from sockets?

Yes, you can remove legendary gems from sockets in Diablo games, specifically in Diablo III and Diablo IV. To do this, you need to visit the Jeweler and use a special item called a "Wondrous Item" or "Gem Removal Token," which allows you to extract the gem without destroying it. This process returns the gem to your inventory, but the socket in the item will be empty afterward.
