Re: [EVDL] Question: L5-30P vs L6-30P

I think they are slightly different.  Does this link help?

The size of the curved connectors look slightly different to me in the pictures.

If you look at the linked chart, the main difference is that the hot and 
neutral (two hots on the L6-30) are reversed, as far as width goes.  Because of 
the switched widths, they won't plug into the other voltage receptacle.

[EVDL] Question: L5-30P vs L6-30P

[Seth Rothenberg via EV]

I am assembling my OpenEVSE
and contemplating the extension cords
and adaptors I will need

When I decommissioned some old Sun servers
a few years ago, I saved the power cords.

30' with a 30 am 250 V locking plug on the end,
To my eye, it seems to be identical
to the 30a 125 V locking plug on the desk-side UPS
that I got (from the same source :-)
But they are labeled with different voltages.

Are these the same?   I could get a socket for
one or both and see, but a link to more info
would be great.

Thanks
Seth
