Those big ass plugs are that way to handle 220-240 volts.

US outlets are 110-120 so the cords and plugs don't need be be that robust. You run 240 through a US cord and it will melt.

But that amount of power is unnecessary at every outlet. The only places in a US home you need that power are clothes dryers, stoves and HVAC.

240 to every outlet is dangerous and stupid. It also guarantees that if there is power spike everything in the house will get fried.

I will give the UK props for having very high electrical safety standards. At least they realize there is a risk.

I'm not talking about what it will do to metal or batteries fucker I am talking about what happens if a person gets shocked. 110-120 is nothing. 220-240v will stop a heart.

So regarding the 'current' argument which is about volt+amps, us sockets are 13-20amps depending on the type. But look up a "ring main". That means you could be potentially exposed to 240 at 32amps.

Yeah then you have what we could call in the US, 2 phase power and the outlets are drawing from both phases.

Not sure if that translates exactly but it's how we would say it/do it in the US. My clothes dryer plugs into 220-240 outlet which draws from both phases to get that power.
>>
Jesus, it's gotten to where we rip on each others electrical plugs?
Having said that...we have a superior electric grid with controls built in to keep the voltage at the nominal level, so we don't need to overbuild plugs to handle spikes from a shit power delivery system.

>>722525153
You fucking mongoloid. Please do research before spouting your shit.
The term Ring Main is used as a distribution term, IE - The power flows in a ring, generally this is underground services and overhead transmission. A ring main always has an open point so its not a complete ring. You can shut power off to 1 section but keep the rest running by closing the open point and opening the points you need to work on.

Current is NOT volt+Amps, it IS AMPS.
Current is actually Voltage divided by Resistance, in ohms law. Kirchoffs is different but thats too advanced for your blonde bangs and grade school education.

6 volts will kill stop a heart. Something like 3-4 AMERICANS a year die from licking AAA Batteries (The little ones in your tv remote), to check if its still got enough power. If you have a weak heart this can kill you.

Most powerpoints or GPO's are rated at 10 amps, with a 16 Amp breaker protecting them, Then theres a 15 amp socket (Welders etc) with a 20 amp breaker and 20 amp with 32 breaker ETCETC.
You literally know nothing.

UK Voltage CAN be 440, but I believe most 3 phases in the world have now been calculated or rated at either 400 or 415V. Its common for us electricians to test and find 440, but most of the time 415, here in australia, UK and in america.

Please stick a fork into a gpo.

>>
>>722525662
lol. You're the retard that took the bait.
>>
What's the difference between a watt, volt, ohm, current, hertz, and amps?
>>
Livens neutral pins are shorter than the earth pin, meaning that if the cord is yanked the live fails first but is still earthed. Likewise if it's pulled half out the wall.

If you look at the live and neutral pins they are insulated at the base so that if a plug is half pulled out the wall you still can't touch the live pin.

It's quite well thought out

You said 220-240v will stop a heart. Not true, current is necessary to stop a heart, not voltage.

A watt is the unit of measure for power (voltage x current).
A volt is the unit of measure for voltage (potential difference in electrical charge between two points)
Ohm is the unit of measure of electrical resistance
Current is the rate of flow of electrical charge, measured in Amperes (Amps)
Hertz is the unit of measure for the frequency of an alternating current cycle

1 outlet isn't 15 amps, the entire circuit is 15 amps, which could be 1 outlet or like 10, depending what was tied into the circuit.
And if something is pulling a load somewhere else on the circuit, you won't get 15 amps, and if you pull more than 15 amps, the circuit breaker trips.

I grew up in America and love UK plugs. They are flat to the wall so you can push furniture up against them. They can also have little power switches built in for each plug, which is way more convenient than finding a switch somewhere along the cord. It's easy to wire up things by opening the head. They look clunky and hearty and nice.

UK plugs / sockets are superior and I will explain why.

You see the extra pin on the top, that's the earth pin, it's slightly longer than the other 2 pins (live and neutral) if you look at our plug socket itself you will see the holes where the live and natural pins go have little plastic gates on them, when you push a plug into the socket, the slightly longer earth pin goes in first, and lifts up the 2 plastic gates on the live and neutral holes, thus ensuring if you have retarded kids that try and shove little bits of metal into sockets they don't die.

But both systems are by far superior to the shitty unsafe US system. EU/UK system can also handel double the power.

someone should make a wireless plug and socket combo. like how cordless charging works where you sit your device on a mat, well the mat is the socket which is attached to the wall, it's just a square blank piece of a plastic, then the plug is flat, then you just touch it to the socket and it sticks with a certain strength, then if you trip over it it will come unstuck, no pins to stand on by accident, can stick as many plugs onto the socket as will physically fit...
