Ultimate Guide to NEMA 5-15P to 5-15R Power Cords and Splitters

Introduction to NEMA 5-15P to 5-15R Cords

NEMA 5-15P to 5-15R power cords, also known as outlet saver cords or power extension cords, are essential for extending the reach of your electrical outlets and providing additional flexibility for connected devices. These cords feature a NEMA 5-15P male plug on one end and a NEMA 5-15R female receptacle on the other, making them compatible with standard US outlets and devices.

Understanding the Connectors

The NEMA 5-15P is a three-wire, two-blade connector with a ground pin, capable of delivering both alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC), with a power consumption of 15 amps at 125 volts. It is commonly referred to as a standard household plug and is used to connect small appliances like TVs, microwaves, and hairdryers to wall outlets.

The NEMA 5-15R is a three-wire grounded connector with forced polarity, also rated up to 125VAC and 15A. It can pair with either the NEMA 1-15P (two-pole, no ground) or the NEMA 5-15P, making it a versatile receptacle for various applications.

5-15P to 5-15R FAQ

What is the difference between 5-15R and 5-15P?

The NEMA 5-15R is a 3-wire grounded receptacle (outlet) rated for 125V AC and 15A. It is designed to accept both NEMA 1-15P (two-pole, no ground) and NEMA 5-15P (two-pole with ground) plugs. The NEMA 5-15P is a common household plug used for connecting small appliances like TVs, microwaves, and hairdryers to a wall outlet.

Can you plug a 5-15P into a 5-20R?

Yes, both NEMA 5-15P and NEMA 5-20P plugs can be plugged into a NEMA 5-20R receptacle. The T-slot design of the 5-20R allows it to accept both 15A and 20A plugs, making it more versatile for various applications.

What is the 5-15P configuration?

The NEMA 5-15P is a three-wire, two-blade connector with a ground pin. It is capable of delivering 15A at 125V for both AC and DC power. This configuration is commonly used for household appliances, office equipment, and other devices that require a grounded power source.

What is a 5-15R plug?

The NEMA 5-15R is a 3-wire grounded receptacle with forced polarity, rated for 125V AC and 15A. It can accept both NEMA 1-15P (two-pole, no ground) and NEMA 5-15P (two-pole with ground) plugs, making it suitable for various household and office applications.

Can a NEMA 5-15P handle 20 amps?

No, the NEMA 5-15P plug is rated for a maximum of 15A. Using it on a 20A circuit could potentially overload the plug and create a fire hazard. If you have a 20A circuit, you should use a NEMA 5-20P plug or replace the receptacles with NEMA 5-20R outlets.

Can I replace a 20A outlet with a 15A outlet?

Yes, you can replace a 20A outlet with a 15A outlet, but not the other way around. A 15A outlet can handle devices rated up to 15A, while a 20A outlet is designed for higher power demands. However, you cannot replace a 15A outlet with a 20A outlet without changing the circuit's rating.

How many plugs can you run off a 15A breaker?

While you can theoretically connect any number of outlets to a 15A circuit, there are practical limitations. Each outlet on a 15A circuit can draw up to 1.5A, allowing for a maximum of 10 outlets. However, electricians recommend using only 80% of a circuit's capacity, which limits it to 8 outlets for optimal safety.

Are 30A to 15A adapters safe?

No, it is not safe to use a 15A or 20A outlet on a 30A circuit. The outlet rating must match or exceed the circuit rating, not the other way around. Using a lower-rated outlet on a higher-rated circuit risks overloading the outlet and creating a fire hazard.
