A 15-amp (15A) socket is a high-capacity electrical outlet designed to handle higher power loads than a standard 13A outlet, making it suitable for appliances that consume more electricity, such as washing machines, microwaves, or commercial refriger
Specifications
It can typically support up to 15 amperes at 230-250V, which equates to approximately 3,450 watts of power (calculated as \(15A\times 230V\)). Visually, a standard 15A socket often has round pins, which are different from the rectangular pins of a 13A plug, and the slots for the neutral and hot wires are often straight.
