Default Re: Standard Plug

Just wanted to get everyone thinking and making fun. This was a question from a electrical teacher to his class, they all said that you can't do it and stated codes. The teacher then asked his class how they would fill the tub with water.

Attachment Plug (Plug Cap) (Plug). A device that, by insertion in a receptacle, establishes a connection between the conductors of the attached flexible cord and the conductors connected permanently to the receptacle.

Receptacle. A receptacle is a contact device installed at the outlet for the connection of an attachment plug. A single receptacle is a single contact device with no other contact device on the same yoke. A multiple receptacle is two or more contact devices on the same yoke.

Device. A unit of an electrical system that is intended to carry or control but not utilize electric energy.
This was a valid question, and when considering the answer, the definitions support the answer as "NO"

It is a catchy question though,
