Default NEMA AC connectors

OK Bill,

Sorry, I was reacting the the number of times I was approached with the
question "Why can't I plug this in here?" or "This almost fits. What is
wrong?" Lots of years as the facility guy will do that to you.

Some of the series are close enough so a few minutes with a file can
make something go where it otherwise might not, but I actually made a
point of not tracking that to force the purchase of the correct part.

Again, without my books I unfortunately can not tell you what can be
modified to do sort of fit what.

Trust me, I understand the shore power connection issue. My boat has no
installed shore power and no need, but my aged little motorhome has a
locker full of adapters and connector and silly little cables (some
fabricated late at night over the last 30+ years) and that doesn't even
have to be locking or retained or sealed.

You've no idea why I'm asking, so please don't go assuming anything.

When dealing with docking and using shore power there are a number of
different combinations of adapters and splitters that might be necessary.
My question about the connectors was based on curiosity, not on
implementation. I'm certainly not interested in circumventing a properly
setup shore power connection. So I really don't need anything other than
what I asked.
