NEMA 6-20P
General Info:
The NEMA 6-20P is a 3 Wire grounded plug featuring two line blades and a ground pin, rated up to 250V AC and 20A. The 6-20P has a horizontal and vertical blade to prevent attachment to lower ampere rated receptacles. However, the 6-20R (receptacle) offers a "T" slot allowing connection of both a 6-20P and a 6-15P. Common applications are commercial ovens and large air condition units. The NEMA 6-20P Series does not feature a neutral conductor.
What does the 6-20P Connect to?
 |  | The NEMA 6-20P Connects to both the NEMA 6-20R Connector and the NEMA 6-15/20R Wall Outlet. The Connector is used for extension cords and power drops, while the outlet is found in some commercial and industrial buildings. |
NEMA L6-20R Twist Lock
General Information:
The NEMA L6-20R Twist-Lock Connector is rated up to 250VAC and 20A. This couples with the L6-20P and locks into place, eliminating nuisance disconnection. This makes this connector common in commercial and industrial settings where there is high traffic. This connector is found on our L6-20 Extension Cord Series, which is used to extend power from an existing L6-20R wall receptacle or connector to a certain location for convenience.
What does the NEMA L6-20R Connect to?
 |  | The NEMA L6-20R Locking Connector is designed to be twisted into place, mating with a NEMA L6-20P Plug or Inlet. The plug can be found on a variety of power cords used in industrial and commercial settings, and the Inlet can be found on a range of industrial equipment. |
