Pick by the clock
Pole count. Amps. Hour. One body.
A pin & sleeve plug is named by three facts: how many poles it carries, its amperage, and the hour position of its earth contact, which fixes the voltage and the colour. Answer the three, or type the code printed on the body, and we show the cell and what we have in it.
200-250V
20 A · 6h · 2P+E · 200-250V
Body code 320P6 · blue body
- Earth contact at 6 o'clock: 200-250V. That position is the interlock; a 200-250V body cannot enter a socket keyed for another voltage.
- Blue body: the standard's colour for 200-250V, so the voltage reads from across the room.
- 2P+E: single phase.
- 20 A is the North American rating (UL 1682 / c(UL)us); the same body is rated 16 A under IEC 60309-2. One part, two listings, never mixed in one range statement.
