Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

Community Guidelines

By following these rules, we can maintain a diverse and informative community. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to the moderators. Thank you for contributing responsibly!

I sometimes wonder if other parts of the world label their local specification as Type A.

[–] toffi@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago

Type B should be Type O. Looks so Negative.

Type I best. I don't have anything to back that up but also it does stay in pretty good and it's my one so yeah

I was really hoping this was about electricity and I'm not disappointed.

Type B has definitely seen some shit. And type K stands for kute I'd guess?

Did some travel recently and was exposed to some new plugs after using type A/B all my life. Big fan of type G, hated E/F.

I've never known any of these to be identified by letters. Where I am in North America, I tend to refer to receptacles by their NEMA code.

I think you've got a typo in your graphic
