About NEMA L5-15P GFCI Power Cords
The NEMA L5-15P is a 3 Wire grounded plug with a hot, neutral and ground pin rated up to 125V and 15A. The plug can be locked into place on the matching receptacle which prevents nuisance disconnection. This feature makes this plug popular in commercial and industrial settings where high traffic or moving of equipment is common. This plug can be distinguished against other NEMA Locking plugs by its small blade circumference on the plug head and inward turned tabs on the neutral blade.
