UK 230 volt household incoming underground electrical supply cable terminating in a 100 amp service fuse, with smaller PME (earth) terminal box to right. Primary earthing to the household is provided by a green/yellow insulated cable (looped) from the incoming supply neutral (blue) within the service fuse holder.
Electrical installations. The National Electrical Code ( NEC ), or NFPA 70, is a regionally adoptable standard for the safe installation of electrical wiring and equipment in the United States. It is part of the National Fire Code series published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), a private trade association. [ 1]
This is a list of abbreviations used in medical prescriptions, including hospital orders (the patient-directed part of which is referred to as sig codes). This list does not include abbreviations for pharmaceuticals or drug name suffixes such as CD, CR, ER, XT (See Time release technology § List of abbreviations for those).
NEMA L6 connectors are rated for a maximum of 250 volts. They are intended for two-pole, three wire, line-line-earth (or hot-hot-ground) circuits with a nominal supply voltage of 208 or 240 volts, depending on phase configuration. The L6 connector does not provide a neutral connection.
20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 100, 120 Where space permits, a miniature circuit breaker is sometimes used to replace a blade-type fuse in the same fuse holder. Blade fuses use a common coloring scheme for the Micro2, Micro3, low-profile (LP) Mini, Mini, and regular size fuses, and a partial color similarity with the maxi size fuses.
Breaking capacity or interrupting rating[ 1][ 2] is the current that a fuse, circuit breaker, or other electrical apparatus is able to interrupt without being destroyed or causing an electric arc with unacceptable duration. The prospective short-circuit current that can occur under short circuit conditions should not exceed the rated breaking ...
Series II current ratings are 20, 30, 60, 100, 200, 300, 350, 500 and 600 amps. The voltage ratings go up to 1000 V AC. These have been replacing the American-style for some time and are much more likely to be found in food processing, data centers, healthcare, entertainment, and other industries.
In the United Kingdom and in Ireland, this system is usually referred to simply as a "13 amp plug" or a "13 amp socket". BS 546 , Two-pole and earthing-pin plugs, socket-outlets and socket-outlet adaptors for AC (50–60 Hz) circuits up to 250 V is an older British Standard for three-pin AC power plugs and sockets .
