Understanding the Essentials

What are Power Cords, Plugs, Connectors and Receptacles?

Power cords, plugs, connectors, and receptacles are essential components that enable the safe transfer of electrical power from an outlet to a device.

Plugs connect to a power source—typically a wall socket—and transmit electricity through copper conductors within the cable to a connector or female plug, which links to the intended appliance or equipment.

Connectors and receptacles, often equipped with safety shrouds, are designed to work with corresponding male or female ends, ensuring secure, reliable, and compatible connections.
