Plugs have the earth pin of a larger diameter than the<br \/>\nothers, and located in different places depending on the voltage rating, making it<br \/>\nimpossible to mate, for instance, a blue plug with a yellow socket. Since the<br \/>\ndifferent current ratings have different overall sizes, it is also not possible to mate<br \/>\ndifferent pin configurations or current ratings. For example, a 16\u00a0A 3P+E 400\u00a0V<br \/>\nplug will not mate with a 16\u00a0A 3P+N+E 400\u00a0V socket and a 16\u00a0A P+N+E 230\u00a0V plug<br \/>\nwill not mate with a 32\u00a0A P+N+E 230\u00a0V socket.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"_Industrial_Socket\"><\/span>\u00a0Industrial Socket<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A socket is a way through which the plug connects the appliance, which generally<br \/>\nconsists, plastic covering that coats the wiring and socket loops provided in the plug settings such that nickel is coated in the wires to avoid corrosion as well as<br \/>\neasier conductivity.<\/p>\n<p>An artificially hollow electrical device in which plugs of several applications fits in,<br \/>\nto receive the adequate energy, is called Industrial socket. These days many<br \/>\ndifferent types of sockets are available as per the application and requirement.<br \/>\nSome of the main types are raw socket, stream socket, datagram socket, etc. Also,<br \/>\nthe industrial sockets are available in the various combinations of pins.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Industrial_Plug\"><\/span>Industrial Plug<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A plug consists of easier words pins, holder translator and connector.
